Synopsis

Sabrina Grimm is used to living among fairy-tale characters, so she expects trouble when she starts at Ferryport Landing Elementary. Something is wrong with the school: the adults are angry, the other children seem sleepy, and the gym teacher is far too keen on dodgeball. When her teacher, Mr. Grumpner, is found hanging in a giant spider web, her sister Daphne, always the cheerful one, is quick to suspect a monster. Sabrina and Daphne must investigate the school and the Everafters connected to it, and decide whether they can solve the case before more harm is done.
