Nine-year-old Harriet Bean receives an invitation from her mind-reading private detective aunts, Thessalonika and Japonica, to go to America with them. The threesome travel out West, where they meet another aunt, Formica, who is losing her cattle to rustlers. Harriet helps her aunts track down the rustlers. This was a mildly entertaining mystery/adventure, but not one I would have been wild about as a child. ( )

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! ( )
