Book 2

with Chloe Mayfield & Thomas Thompson

The six Mayfield orphans.  Every adult in their lives died suddenly within a few months.  No one knows how they managed to pay for the funerals.  And no one really understands what happened next.  But suddenly, one rainy spring day, the Mayfield orphans were gone.  Skipped town.  A lot of important people around town are fuming, but no one actually talks about why.  It’s the biggest scandal since Claire Ursine’s out-of-wedlock child!
