There is a hidden treasure in the grand old mansion on Piccadilly Street, in a place called London, but not the real London of English fame. There’s also a lot of mystery and a murder that’s been unsolved for decades. But it’s the treasure that captures Mary’s interest.
Mary lives in this house along with her family, her Brownie friends and a ghost. When the ghost reveals her secret about the hidden treasure, there’s no stopping Mary, her Brownie friends, or her enemies from searching for this treasure.

Snippet #3:
“You have no idea what you have
returned to.” Oisín did an about-face and resumed his tongue-lashing on his
father. “The Brownie kingdom is on the point of extinction. With Penelope on
the prowl, all the Brownie groups are grumbling and arguing amongst themselves.
We may have a war on our hands in the near future. And all you can think about
is whether or not I have the right to this kingship.”
With the mention of Penelope’s name,
all ears perked up. Mary was the first to ask, “What do you mean, Penelope is
on the prowl? I killed her in a ball of fire.”
“Ha!” Oisín snorted.
“You cannot kill a Brownie with fire. Not a Brownie with
her kind of power. She will be our downfall. Especially if she manages to get her
hands on the ring.”
