Gertrude, Eugenia, and Dee-Dee Porch do not belong in the snooty town of Antiquarium, where all girls have to go to etiquette school. They don’t belong with their adoptive family, where their Aunt has more brooches than books. And they certainly don’t belong at Mrs Wintermacher’s etiquette school. After getting kicked out of the last etiquette school that would take them, the girls expect to be sent away for good… until they receive a mysterious invitation to a new school. Suddenly the girls are under the tutelage of the infamous Millicent Quibb – a mad scientist with worms in her hair and oysters in her bathtub. Dangerous? Yes! More fun than they’ve ever had? Absolutely! But when the sisters are asked to save their town from an evil cabal of nefarious mad scientists, they must learn to embrace what has always made them stand out, and determine what side they’re on.
