For alongside her friendships, Cos finally has a real family, too – and every day spent with her long-lost father is more magical than the last. But where Cos goes, adventure is sure to follow – and when a world-famous painting is stolen, Cos’s father is arrested for the crime. Cos and her friends know he has been framed – and they are sure that notorious thief, the Spectre, is responsible. Cos is determined that she won’t lose her father again – and the girls must use spirit, wit, bravery and ingenuity to solve the crime and bring him safely home… The perfect read for fans of Katherine Rundell, Tamzin Merchant, Robin Stevens and Anna James
