Set in the early nineteenth century, these books chronicle the story of Felix Brooke, a half-Spanish, half-English orphan who runs away from his heartless aristocratic relations to learn about his father. Aiken was a master of plotting, so readers have to be on their toes to follow the ins and outs of whom can be trusted and what dangers lie ahead.(Copyright 2008 by The Horn Book, Incorporated, Boston.
