Prisoner of the Pyrenees

In Prisoner of the Pyrenees by C.R. Hedgcock, Briose Del Quera bursts into the Baker family's lives. She is an orphaned Catalan girl who is still reeling from her grandfather's death. His last words instructed her to find people who are called "Baker" and get in contact with a secret agent that they know—but Jigson has gone missing in suspicious circumstances and not even his agency is able to contact him. The Bakers are determined to help Briosa find Mr. Jigson and get to the bottom of the plot against her grandfather. But as their journey through northern Spain becomes a breathless race to avoid villains and meet allies, they begin to wonder if Briosa has told them everything. Can they find Jigson and stop a global conspiracy, or will they all become prisoners of the Purenees? Recommended for ages 8 to 14 years.
