In the tradition of Nancy Drew, Phyllis Wong is a clever and resourceful young heroine—and a magician. With the help of her trusty sidekick Daisy, she helps solve crimes. Can a bit of time travel help her to figure out who is trying to sell stolen Shakespeare folios?  

In Phyllis Wong's latest case someone has sold a number of incredibly valuable, first edition Shakespeare plays at the antique auction house. The House of Wendlebury and Chief Inspector Inglis suspect foul play. These rare first folios are in mint condition, but are not forgeries. Where on earth could they have come from? Has a crime been committed? Luckily Phyllis is on the case. Having recently discovered one of her great-grandfather's conjuring secrets, she travels back to Shakespeare's day to get to the bottom of it. But when a famously lost Shakespearean play is scheduled to be auctioned back in the 21st century, Phyllis suspects villainy. In this astonishing and fun story, the young magician with a talent for sleuthing finds her world turned upside-down as she discovers that there is magic about that is far more amazing than even she could imagine—and villainy the likes of which she has never encountered!

“Readers of the first book won’t be disappointed with this one. Shakespeare fans will also enjoy the significant amount of time spent in London during the Jacobean period.” —School Library Journal
