"When Did You See Her Last?" by Lemony Snicket

This week I read the second book in the All the Wrong Questions series; "When Did You See Her Last?" This book is about a boy (who is Lemony at age 13) who is doing work in a town called Stain'd by the Sea. This town used to be famous for producing ink, but not anymore, and it is barely inhabited now. A rich teenage girl named Cleo Knight goes missing in the beginning of the book, and Lemony and his journalist friend Moxie are hired to save them. But Lemony's chaperone S. Theodora Markson jumps to conclusions, and makes it all the more difficult for Lemony and Moxie to solve the case. They visit the library to do research on a man named Colonel Colophon, and Lemony runs off, following the villain Hangfire. He finds a character from the last book who had stolen a statue, and they become friends. The three, along with other young teenagers in the town have to solve the case of Cleo Knight. This book was very good. It is about 275 pages long. The other book is called "Who Could that be At This Hour?" and I would recommend reading that, and then "When Did You See Her Last?"
