Summary:
Reynie, Kate, Sticky, and Constance, all graduates of the Learning Institute for the Very Enlightened and members of the Benedict Society, embark on a scavenger hunt that turns into a desperate search for the missing Mr. Benedict.
Excerpt/First Sentence(s):
On a bright September morning, when most children his age were in school fretting over fractions and decimal points, a boy named Reynie Muldoon was walking down a dusty road. He was an average-looking boy - with average brown hair and eyes, legs of average length, nose an average distance from his ears, and so on - and he was entirely alone. Other than a falcon soaring high over the road and a few meadow-larks keeping a low profile in the fields on either side, Reynie was the only living creature around.
Publisher Description:
The fabulous foursome readers embraced as The Mysterious Benedict Society is back with a new mission, significantly closer to home. After reuniting for a celebratory scavenger hunt, Reynie, Kate, Sticky, and Constance are forced to go on an unexpected search - a search to find Mr. Benedict. It seems that while he was preparing the kids' adventure, he stepped right into a trap orchestrated by his evil twin Mr. Curtain.
With only one week to find a captured Mr. Benedict, the gifted foursome faces their greatest challenge of all - a challenge that will reinforce the reasons they were brought together in the first place and will require them to fight for the very namesake that united them.
