The Incorrigible Children of Ashton Place: Book V

By: Maryrose Wood

Narrated by: Katherine Kellgren

For fans of Lemony Snicket's Series of Unfortunate Events and Trenton Lee Stewart's Mysterious Benedict Society, here comes the fifth book in the Incorrigible Children of Ashton Place, the acclaimed and hilarious Victorian mystery series by Maryrose Wood.

Lord Fredrick Ashton may not feel ready to be a father, but with a little Ashton on the way, he's sure about one thing: the wolfish curse on his family must end soon, before the child is born. Penelope willingly takes on the challenge; when Lady Constance's doctor prescribes a seaside holiday, Penelope jumps at the chance to take the three Incorrigible children to Brighton, where she hopes to persuade the old sailor Pudge to reveal what he knows about the Ashton curse.

But the Ashtons are not the only ones at the beach in January. The passionately temperamental Babushkinov family is also taking the winter waters.

The Incorrigible children may have been raised by wolves, but the Babushkinov children are the wildest creatures they've ever seen. Is it more than mere coincidence that these untamed children have turned up in Brighton just as Penelope and the Incorrigibles arrive?

Great story

Great storyline with a wonderful narrator. There us the right amount of suspense intermingled with humor to attract young and older.

FANTASTIC!

Loved this story so much! The books continue to become more and more suspenseful and exciting. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Five stars for everything!

ANOTHER NEW FAVORITE!

I love coming across new authors that become new friends. I have really enjoyed these book and hope that Ms. Wood writes many many more!
I did not like how this book ended!! I hope that Penelope can find a way out of her predicament!

Surprises

I can't believe the ending. The series has been full of twists and turns but I was shocked by the way this book ended.

Fun read aloud for the family

Good story for young people. It has pleasant plot twists, interesting characters, and leaves plenty to discuss and joke about when you're not listening to the book. The audible version is excellently narrated and characterized.
