About This Book

Accidents, evil plots, and general misfortune abound when, in their continuing search for a home, the Beaudelaire orphans are sent to live and work in a sinister lumber mill.

The Baudelaire orphans are thrust into the jaws of danger and intrigue at the Lucky Smells Lumbermill, where Violet, Klaus, and Sunny spend their miserable days debarking trees and bundling wood. When Klaus breaks his glasses, will his sisters realize too late that the town optometrist has hypnotized him and is in cahoots with the nefarious Count Olaf?
