A rather large problem has befallen the Huit girls. (Sisters actually. Octuplets to be exact.) One particular New Years Eve the girls wait for their Mummy to bring them hot chocolate & their daddy to return with more wood for the fire. But they dont. Mummy & Daddy that is. Theyre gone. Poof! Maybe dead
- no one knows for sure. You must see the problem here. Eight little girls on their own no mommy or daddy to take care of them. This is not a good thing. So now these little girls must take care of themselves. Get to school cook the meals feed the cats (eight of them too) & pay the bills. They cant ask for help oh no. Any self-respecting adult would surely call in social services & those well-meaning people would have to split them up. After losing their parents being split up would be completely unbearable. At the same time the question remains: What happened to Mummy & Daddy? The Sisters Eight (as they are called affectionately & otherwise) are determined to find out. Luckily they do seem to have someone or something helping them. Notes keep appearing behind a loose brick in the fireplace. Its a good old-fashioned mystery with missing (or dead) parents nosy neighbours talking refrigerators foul-smelling fruitcake (is there any other kind?) & even a little magic. Eight little girls eight cats & one big mystery
- let the fun begin.
