      Gr 3-7-Michael Malone tried to quit UNICORNE, a secret organization dedicated to unearthing supernatural events, after another agent was killed, but he's been roped into another mystery. Michael is more suspicious than ever about UNICORNE and especially curious about new information concerning his missing father and the appearance of a crow that bears a striking resemblance to Freya, an agent he believed had died. Then a local comic book shop sets up a window display of comics portraying Freya as a crow. Coincidence? UNICORNE thinks not. While the action and mystery have potential, some plot twists seem far fetched and the dialogue can sometimes dampen the story line-when Michael is asked to go on another mission to explore the comic book shop, he complains that he has homework and has to be home by five. This may be a realistic scenario, but it makes Michael look unsympathetic as he cares more about being home on time than helping his friend. Raphael Corkhill narrates, using different voices for each character. VERDICT Strictly an additional purchase where the series is popular.-Katie Llera, Bound Brook High School, NJ
