Synopsis
In the sixth entry of the continuing chronicles about the regrettably doomed Baudelaire orphans, Violet, Klaus, and Sunny are adopted by a very rich couple, one of whom is obsessed with what is In and what is Out. Luckily for the children, orphans are 'in' this year. But encounters with unbelievably long, darkened stairwells, secret passageways, and parsley soda are just the beginning of their worries. As always, Count Olaf lurks close by, waiting to pounce.
The woeful saga of the Baudelaire orphans continues as evil Count Olaf discovers their whereabouts at Esmâe Squalor's seventy-one bedroom penthouse and concocts a new plan for stealing their family fortune.

Publisher's Note
Dear Reader, If you have just picked up this audio, then it is not too late to put it back down. Like the previous books in A Series of Unfortunate Events, there is nothing to be found in these pages but misery, despair, and discomfort, and you still have time to choose something else to read. Within the chapters of this story, Violet, Klaus, and Sunny Baudelaire encounter a darkened staircase, a red herring, some friends in a dire situation, three mysterious initials, a liar with an evil scheme, a secret passageway, and parsley soda. I have sworn to write down these tales of the Baudelaire orphans so the general public will know each terrible thing that has happened to them, but if you decide to read something else instead, you will save yourself from a heapful of horror and woe. With all due respect, Lemony Snicket
