Order of Blotto, Twinks Books

The charming yet dim-witted Blotto pairs perfectly with his gorgeous and sharp-minded sister Twinks as they navigate historical whodunnits filled with wit and humor.
Launched in 2008 with Blotto, Twinks and the Ex-King's Daughter, this ongoing series maintains a consistent titular format—each book begins with "Blotto, Twinks and the..."
