    Harriet Bean is thrilled! Her two detective aunts Thessalonika and Japonica are taking her across the vast Atlantic Ocean to the wilds of America. When they arrive at their destination, Harriet is happy to discover she has a sixth aunt-Aunt Formica the cowgirl. To add to her joy, Harriet soon learns there's also a mystery to solve. Crafty cattle rustlers are somehow stealing Aunt Formica's cows.

      This was a cute adventure/mystery book with wholesome and fun characters. Would be interested in seeing more from the series - but I am not running to the store for them. My 5 year old enjoyed the story..As an adult reader I felt it fell a little flat - but good overall!
