Glancing around Hannah’s workspace, she snatched up the new envelope and said, “What’s this?”

Hannah said, “That? It’s just a manuscript. Must be a new agency—Sherry something.”

Letha read the label. “Sherry Clutch . . . oh, yes, I believe I’ve heard of her. She’s supposed to be very bright. Listen—buzz me the second you’re sure all those revisions check out, okay? And I want you to give this a look over the weekend.” Letha dropped the envelope on Hannah’s lap and swept out of the office.

Hannah shook her head and gave Natalie a wry smile. “So much for the weekend, eh? Listen, I’ve got to get back to work. Tim is probably gone by now, so you can hang out over there, okay?”

Natalie said, “Sure, Mom.”

As she walked over to Tim’s cubicle, Natalie tried not to smile. The editorial director of Shipley Junior Books had just pretended that she knew all about the Sherry Clutch Literary Agency. And then she had ordered her best editor to read a novel written by a twelve-year-old.

Alone in Tim’s office, Natalie grinned. For the first time ever she was glad that her mom’s boss was a fire-breathing, stuck-up know-it-all.
