This one is on the Great Stoneface List for this year. Written by Natasha Farrant, it is a realistic fiction, adventure story set at a boarding school in Scotland. The three main characters, all somewhat outcasts, become friends and accompany Alice when she abandons the school's field trip and goes to find her father, who has sent her a mysterious package. Unbeknownst to her, though, her father is in trouble and being chased by a lethal theif called the Leopard. The three friends find adventure and danger on their trip, as well as clarity about who they are. (FIC FAR)
