1940. Britain is at war, and a secret arm of the British government called the\u00a0Ministry of Unladylike Activity<\/span>\u00a0is training up spies.<\/span><\/p>\n

Enter\u00a0May Wong<\/span>: courageous, stubborn, and desperate to help end the war so that she can go home to Hong Kong (and leave her annoying school, Deepdean, behind forever). May knows that she would make the perfect spy. After all, grown-ups always underestimate children like her.<\/span><\/p>\n

When May and her friend\u00a0Eric<\/span>\u00a0are turned away by the Ministry, they take matters into their own hands. Masquerading as evacuees, they travel to Elysium Hall, home to the wealthy Verey family – including snobby, dramatic\u00a0<\/span>Nuala<\/span>. They suspect that one of the Vereys is passing information to Germany. If they can prove it, the Ministry will\u00a0<\/span>have<\/span>\u00a0to take them on.
