THE PERILS OF PEPPERMINTS, by Barbara Brooks Wallace
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
THE PERILS OF PEPPERMINTS is actually the sequel to a book I read a few years back called, PEPPERMINTS IN THE PARLOR, that kept me guessing about the fate of Emily Luccock, a young orphan girl in the Victorian Era. The author's way with words and ability to build a fantastic mystery story tied both books together beautifully. THE PERILS OF PEPPERMINTS picks up right where the first book left off. The characters were always compelling, and nothing about the book was ever predictable -- including the surprise ending.
Great Book!

After reading Peppermints in the Parlor I eagerly began The Perils of Peppermints. What a delight! Is it possible that the second was better than the first? Just maybe -- both books are terrific!
Another winner

THE PERILS OF PEPPERMINTS is a perfect--and long awaited--sequel to Barbara Wallace's PEPPERMINTS IN THE PARLOR. It was worth the wait. Ms. Wallace is a delight, as usual. I loved the book, as did my grandchildren.A Virginia reader
