About the Book

Mystery - Mayhem - Misery. What if you found out your parents were bank robbers? Virgil and Delilah Pendergas have long known that their parents were up to no good, but they had no idea it could be this bad. In an attempt to help their parents realize that they need to care for them, the children take a briefcase of stolen money from the criminal couple and try and turn it into the police. Their plans are dashed when their parents unleash their wrath and the children are forced to take refuge with a group of odd characters in a dismally named mansion. Can Virgil and Delilah find the life they long to have, or will they suffer the consequences of double crossing dangerous criminals.
