She can handle anything anyone throws at her, can't she? Can't she? Can't she, buster? When there's an evil genius out to get you, and a whole heap of pressure from every direction possible, what can a teenage girl do? Cross her fingers and hope for the best? You better hope not, bozo. ------------------------------- All characters, settings and cover design belong to Lauren Child, author of the Ruby Redfort series.
