Eleven-year-old Amelia AshfordâMillie to her friends (if she had any, that is)âdoesnât realize just how much adventure awaits her when sheâs given the opportunity of a lifetime: to spend the night in Amelia Earhartâs childhood home with five other girls. Make that five strangers. But Millieâs mom is a pilot like the famous Amelia, and Millie would love to have something to write to her aboutâŠif only she had her address.
Once at Ameliaâs house in Atchison, Kansas, Millie stumbles upon a display of Ameliaâs famous flight goggles. She canât believe her good luck, since theyâre about to be relocated to a fancy museum in Washington, DC. But her luck changes quickly when the goggles disappear, and Millie was the last to see them. Soon, fingers are pointing in all directions, and someone falls strangely ill. Suddenly, a fun night of scavenger hunts and sweets takes a nosedive and the girls arenât sure who to trust. With a blizzard raging outside and a house full of suspects, the girls have no choice but to band together. Itâs up to the Amelia Six to find the culprit and return the goggles to their rightful place. Or the next body to collapse could be one of theirs.
