From the award-winning author of The Great Trouble comes a story of espionage, survival, and friendship during World War II. Bertie Bradshaw never set out to become a spy. He never imagined traipsing around war-torn London, solving ciphers, practicing surveillance, and searching for a traitor to the Allied forces. He certainly never expected that a strong-willed American girl named Eleanor would play Watson to his Holmes (or Holmes to his Watson, depending on who you ask). But when a young woman goes missing, leaving behind a coded notebook, Bertie is determined to solve the mystery. With the help of Eleanor and his friend David, a Jewish refugee--and, of course, his trusty pup, Little Roo--Bertie must decipher the notebook in time to stop a double agent from spilling the biggest secret of all to the Nazis. From the author of The Great Trouble, this suspenseful WWII adventure reminds us that times of war call for bravery, brains and teamwork from even the most unlikely heroes.Binding Type: Hardcover

Nice

This cap is soft and doesn't pull my hair out. I fits comfortably under my construction hat

Soft and durable!
I bought this for my husband as a christmas gift and so far it’s been great quality! He works outside and I wanted to get something warm and soft for the winter. It’s been washed (and air dried) 3-4 times in the last couple of months and it’s held up great!! Such good quality for the price. He says it’s very soft and warm and prefers it over itchy wool.

Favorite. Hat. Ever.
I don't usually write reviews but I though I would this time for two reasons. Ordered one of these in black from Amazon and it showed up in a nice giftable box and the hat itself is really nice. Soft, warm cashmere. Favorite hat I've ever had. The fit is perfect. Not too large, not too small. Overall very impressive and a super reasonable value too!
Here is my warning: There were different colors available of course, one of which was a dark green which became unavailable. So I went to Villand's website where they had the dark green available for purchase for $26. I bought a second hat from Villand directly and it TOOK 18 DAYS for delivery! There is no phone number for customers to call on Villands website. I wrote twice asking about the order and heard nothing back. The tracking number provided did not work until about three days prior to delivery. I was honestly surprised when it showed up in the mail. I thought the money was gone and no hat was ever giong to arrive. No idea where it was shipped from but assuming over seas somewhere. My recommendation is to purchase via Amazon and NOT FROM Villand directly.

Best beanie!
This was a Christmas gift and the receiver loved it! It was just what he wanted! Cashmere is always the best choice for comfort, softness, wearability and durability!
