Strengstens Verboten - Willkommen Im Hotel Whippet (2012) - Plot & Excerpts
Fun mystery story that takes place in a strange, magical hotel building built by an eccentric millionaire. Leo and his father take care of the place. Mrs. Sparks mans the front desk and bosses people around. Strange tenants make all kinds of demands. And, because the owner is missing, things are starting to slowly unravel. Leo finds a small purple box in the elevator one day and it sets off a crazy mystery involving ducks, strange magical rooms, meeting a new friend, and finally meeting the owner once again.A wacky adventure filled with lots of imagination. A story that will appeal to many. "Leo had a feeling about needing a duck." Only a book starring the quacky, wild Whippet Hotel would contain a sentence like this. Leo Fillmore lives and works in the Whippet with his father, Clarence. For five years, their maintenance work has been fairly standard- until the 100th day of the absence of the hotel's owner, the eccentric Merganser D. Whippet. Character description: think Willy Wonka with a duck obsession. The day Leo finds the first box is the day his life takes a weird, wild turn- but for better or worse, he can't be sure. With his new friend Remi and his feathered friend Betty, Leo's adventures take him to places he never knew existed, throughout a tangled mass of rings, rollercoasters, and-- sabotage?
