<b>When the Truth is stolen, it's up to the Deavy quartet to get it back</b><br><br> For any normal teenage boy, having two and a half younger sisters would be enough to deal with. But Simwan Deavy's life <i>isn't</i> normal. His family is non-Ord - short for "non-Ordinary" - which means that at school, he and his sisters learn hexing and enchanting along with history and math. It also means they have a ghost for an uncle and a cat who talks. Still, everything is going well for Simwan - until a bottle of Truth is stolen from the local pharmacy. Now the Deavys' favorite woods are under threat from development, their mother - whose life depends on the Truth - is growing weaker, and the world as they know it might never be the same.<br> <br> With the help of their cat, Pithfwid, the Deavys track the loathsome, horrible Crub to his lair in New York City. But the Crub has laid traps, turning a dangerous city into a deadly one. To succeed at their mission, the Deavys will have to stick together - or the Truth may be lost forever.
