About this book

When three spirited cousins receive an urgent letter from their friend Kenneth Forbes, they're drawn into an exhilarating adventure that transcends drawing-room gossip in L. Frank Baum's Aunt Jane's Nieces at Work. The beloved author of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz crafts this captivating tale where the resourceful Louise, Beth, and the irrepressible red-haired Patsy discover that politics is indeed "work"—and they're determined to help Kenneth win his bid for the New York State legislature. What begins as a simple campaign quickly spirals into a thrilling mystery. As the three cousins rally to their cousin's cause, they uncover forged documents, suspicious disappearances, and unexpected conspiracies threatening to derail Kenneth's election. With quick thinking, courage, and unwavering loyalty, the young women navigate a world of political intrigue far more complex than they anticipated. Each discovery brings new challenges and revelations that test their ingenuity and resolve. Set in early twentieth-century New York, this adventure story seamlessly blends romance, mystery, and social commentary. Baum masterfully balances humor with genuine stakes, creating characters whose determination and integrity shine throughout their campaign. Perfect for fans of classic coming-of-age fiction and historical adventure, this audiobook celebrates the power of friendship and the remarkable impact young women can have when they work together toward a worthy goal.
