In the fourth book of the Sisters Grimm series, Sabrina and Daphne Grimm investigate a string of unusual incidents in New York City involving a group of fairy-tale characters. The sisters must use their detective skills to solve the mystery and save the city. The Grimms take Manhattan in the fourth book in the New York Times bestselling series! When fairy-tale detectives Sabrina and Daphne Grimm venture back to the big city to help a friend, they land in the middle of a big mystery.
