Book Description

Publication Date: June 1963

From the same pen that delighted young and old readers with "The Rescuers" and "Miss Bianca" comes a third in a series of adventures starring the appealing white mouse Miss Bianca, with supporting roles played inimitably by Bernard, half-Irish Shaun, and a cast of hundreds. The Turret is a suspenseful tale filled with Margery Sharp's characteristic gaiety, warmth, and humor. This time Miss Bianca is placed in the trying position of having to rescue her mortal enemy from a gruesome fate. It is with mixed emotions that the reader watches the wicked Mandrake in his unaccustomed part of wretched captive. The quality of mercy of which Miss Bianca is an advocate is truly strained in this situation.
