Before they have time to search for it, other mysteries pop up.<P> Who is the young woman whose portrait hangs in the Sargent house? Who is sneaking around the house at night? And why is someone trying to make trouble for Amy and Freddy?<P> The two children, with help from their friends, must find answers to all the mysteries – and, in the process, learn how to hold up their heads and keep their self-respect in spite of what neighbors might think of their family.
