When eleven-year-old Ann is sent to live with the famous Assassin Nuns of Pistachio, she expects nothing less than a life of swashbuckling adventures and covert rescue missions. Instead, she meets a group of mild-mannered women who prefer soufflés to sword fighting and haven’t stepped out of their mountaintop abbey in years. After Ann discovers that there’s something very nasty going on in Pistachio, she decides it’s time the nuns lived up to their reputation. Armed with wooden spoons, gardening gloves and a malfunctioning robot broom, can these unlikely heroes save the day?

‘There was a swish of a tail and for the first time in more than seventy years, the bazaar at Giripuram was Gangamma-less.’ At the ripe old age of seventy-nine and a quarter, Gangamma the gardener comes across a rather unusual object—a gharial-shaped earring that can take her anywhere in the world. On her very first trip, she tries to kidnap an apple tree, only to discover that it has a guardian—a sullen twelve-year-old girl, and an unlikely friendship springs between the two. But that’s only the beginning of this story . . . or well, the middle, depending on how you look at it. This book is no teleporter, but it will transport you (whether you’re twelve or seventy-nine) to a fabulous (as in, fable-like) land of strange creatures and odd heroes, and where things are never what they seem.
