In the long-awaited fourth book in the New York Times bestselling series, the Grimms take on New York City!
Surprises abound for Sabrina and Daphne Grimm, fairy-tale detectives extraordinaire. When they venture into the big city, they stumble upon a murder, face betrayal by a friend, and discover an amazing secret about their mother, Veronica.
Sabrina just wants to be normal—no detecting, no dangerous escapes, and especially no Everafters. Unfortunately, New York City is a hiding spot for many famous fairy-tale folk. And there's a murderer in their midst! The girls and their friends must figure out who killed Puck's father, King Oberon, while coming to terms with their mother's secret life. Will they stop the murderer before he or she can strike again? And will Sabrina ever accept her family's destiny?
The colorful world of the Grimms expands in new and hilarious directions in Once upon a Crime. Critics and readers alike have embraced the Sisters Grimm series and its independent, quick-thinking heroines.

"Everafters" (fairy-tale characters) are flesh and blood--a fact Sabrina and Daphne Grimm know all too well, as they rush to Manhattan to seek help for the ailing trickster Puck. But when Puck's father, Oberon, is murdered, eleven-year-old Sabrina isn't so sure she wants her destiny linked to the Everafters anymore. Questions about identity and responsibility add nuance to this fast-paced mystery.(Copyright 2008 by The Horn Book, Incorporated, Boston. All rights reserved.)
