Sinossi
Un quadro scomparso, una città nuova e incomprensibile, un museo insolito, persone che si comportano in modo strano: Ted, così incapace di affrontare le novità, non si trova per niente a suo agio in questa situazione. Ma solo quando Zia Gloria verrà accusata del furto, saprà farsi forza e mettere in moto il suo cervello, sul quale gira un sistema operativo diverso. E allora, insieme a sua sorella Kat e a Salim, proverà a scandagliare New York per risolvere il mistero e ritrovare il quadro. Prima che sia davvero troppo tardi. Basandosi su un'idea e sugli indimenticabili personaggi di Siobhan Dowd, Robin Stevens ha costruito un avvincente romanzo pieno di mistero e di umorismo, di deduzioni logiche e di colpi di scena. Età di lettura: da 10 anni.

I don’t know if it is just me, but sentences/ph Leggi tutto
The Guggenheim Mystery is the follow up story to Siobhan Dowd's 2007 The London Eye Mystery. Dowd sadly died of cancer at the end of 2007. She had been contracted to write two Ted Spark mysteries, but other than selecting the title of book two, she died before planning any of it. The Siobhan Dowd Tru Leggi tutto
I loved this. Robin has done an incredible job of continuing Siobhan's story without simply mimicking it. She's brought her own flair to the story, while adding even more depth to the brilliant characters of THE LONDON EYE MYSTERY. Ted has one of the most unique voices in fiction, and it's a pleasur Leggi tutto
This is a great story and it is clear that the author studied on what the wjole world she created in this story was actually like in real life. To all the Brits out there i am sure you can agree how close to home all the British food references were great
I loved Siobhan Dowd's The London Eye Mystery and so was very excited to be spending time with Ted Spark again. Although one may feeling some trepidation with a different author taking on the mantle of a previous one - and with such a memorable character to boot -, I had absolutely no qualms about R Leggi tutto
Ted, Kat and Salim solve their second mystery when Salim's mother is accused of stealing an important painting by Kandinsky from her new job at the Guggenheim Museum. Ted, Kat, and their mother are visiting in New York City which is a very stressful thing for Ted. Being autistic, he is better if he
