- Book 2 of 2: Sole Brethren
Gifted with an extraordinary psychic ability, Cordelia is quietly recruited by an international policing agency to tackle the most baffling cases. Her methods are unconventional, her success rate enviable, and her sense of style entirely uncompromised.
Between bringing unsavoury characters to justice, Cordelia indulges in high-spirited escapades with her adorable twin brother Rex and their dazzling friend Elodie l’Archambeau. But when the trio play a prank on the art world — passing off their nursery-school daubs as the work of a mysterious new collective — they attract attention far more troubling than they anticipated.
As powerful enemies circle and secrets unravel, Cordelia must rely on her wits, her friends, and her uncanny gift to wriggle out of trouble — preferably without losing her shoes, her freedom, or her joie de vivre.
Witty, glamorous, and irresistibly feel-good, Sole Brethren: Left To Their Own Devices is the second novel in the Sole Brethren series, celebrating friendship, mischief, magic, and the fine art of getting away with it.

I have never read books like the Sole Brethren series with characters that capture you so totally, I really step into their world - laughing very loudly, connecting with their profound familial love.

If you want a fun frolicking story to take you away from reality then this book is for you.
Elsie Dee, USA
I just don't think there's anyone writing like this right now. There is this breathless exhilarating, giggly whole-hearted joy to every line that makes you feel, as a reader, like you are exchanging desperate delicious gossip with a dear friend.
