When Alice goes missing, Midge and Cleo turn to her stories in search of a clue. But they soon discover that Alice's secret book, The Museum of Unfinished Stories, is much more than just a story. With villains jumping off the page, Midge and Cleo must use all their powers of deduction to unlock the secrets of the museum and untangle the mystery of their sister's disappearance, before time runs out ...A rich and twisting tale of magic, riddles and talking cats, from a classic author.
