The Clock Winked Ariele Sieling

Bronwyn has heard whispers of an ancient family secret, and with her birthday-and inheritance-right around the corner, she's decided to find out exactly what it is. She heads to the centuries-old Oliphant family bookstore to do some research. When his uncle gets arrested, Auvek Oliphant is surprised to find himself the curator of the old family store, William Oliphant, bookseller. When Bronwyn offers to help him straighten things out, he agrees, in exchange for helping her looking into her own family secret, which is tied up in the old legend of the winking clock. Meanwhile, Pomegranate city is in chaos. The Administrative Chair has died under mysterious circumstances and the entire government is in turmoil. Quin and John race to ensure that none of the Globe's dirty secrets are unearthed by the new Chair's surprise audit, and reporter Sauvignon Pincer pokes his nose into everyone's business. Join Bronwyn, Auvek, Sauvignon, Quin, John, and the others for a fun, irreverent romp through the science fiction world of the Sagittan Chronicles.
