Secrets and Spies: Plague review by underwood_bcl

Wonderful, mysterious, surprising, and scary all describe the book, Secrets and Spies, by Jo Macauley. Beth has talent for acting but she is also a spy that has helped save London. She is about to do it again, although she does not know it. The King's Theatre is working on the play, Love's Green Garlands, when the king's cousin demands a part in the play. The only part they can give her is small part but she quickly takes over most of Beth's part before anyone can stop her.
