Buckle up for a whirlwind adventure with Billy and Bluma, childhood friends whose reunion sparks chaos and courage! When Billy’s immortal parents gift him a glowing, indestructible orb, a mischievous monkey swipes it, dropping it into Bluma’s bread dough. Their lion guardian, Leonard, chomps into the loaf—only to break a tooth on the orb! The kids’ wild solution? Tying Leonard’s tooth to a boulder and sending it hurtling downhill, yanking the tooth out as the lion crashes into a stone wall. But the collision reveals a hidden treasure: a shattered porcelain box containing a map and a gold coin stamped with the face of their long-lost nanny, Aunt Mathilda, murdered during the Tribulation but now resurrected as an immortal saint.

Determined to find her, Billy and Bluma sneak out of school, with a grumpy Leonard hot on their heels. The map leads them to a bustling farmer’s market, where they encounter the sinister Junta, a cult leader who uses his dazzling Carnival City to ensnare kids. Junta drugs Leonard, shipping him off to a deadly hunting ground, and lures the kids into a treacherous abyss. When they refuse to join his twisted cause, he locks them up, leaving them trapped in darkness.

Will Billy and Bluma outsmart Junta’s cult? Can they rescue Leonard from a hunter’s trap? Packed with heart-pounding twists, mischievous antics, and a dash of otherworldly mystery, Billy & Bluma: Double Trouble is a page-turner that will keep you hooked until the very last page. Join the quest—available May 2, 2025!
