The Crims
About this ebook
The Crim family is full of notorious criminals. Notoriously inept, that is. Uncle Knuckles once tried to steal a carnival. Great-Uncle Bernard held himself hostage by accident. Aunt Drusilla died slipping on a banana peel. But Imogen is different. She was born with a skill for scandal. A knack for the nefarious. A mastery of misdemeanors.
Despite her natural talent for all things unlawful, Imogen got out of the family business years ago. But when the rest of the Crims are accused of pulling off a major heist—which seems doubtful, to say the least—Imogen is forced to step in to clear their names. Because only a truly skilled criminal can prove the bumbling family’s innocence....
- A Family of Criminals: Meet the Crims, a clan so comically inept that one uncle held himself hostage by accident. Only twelve-year-old Imogen has the real talent for trouble.
- A Humorous Adventure: When the family is framed for a heist they couldn’t possibly have pulled off, Imogen must use her mastery of misdemeanors to clear their names.
- Boarding School Drama: Imogen left the family business for a posh boarding school, but getting expelled drags her right back into the chaos she tried to leave behind.
- Clearing Their Names: It will take a truly brilliant criminal to prove her bumbling family is innocent. Luckily, Imogen is just the girl for the job.
