Pet's Revenge

In the fourth adventure of the Edgar & Ellen series the twins discover that Pet is a force to be reckoned with and has the potential to be quite a useful ally in their escapades. Pet utilises various tricks and devices to get around: sliding down a banister, vaulting off a springy floorboard, and dropping down the dumbwaiter until, suddenly flying through the air, Pet gets caught by a baseball mitt. Ellen notes how much harder it is to catch Pet these days. Using the powerful balm made in the lab, Pet comes into his own by playing a trick on Ellen by poisoning her. She becomes uncharacteristically friendly towards the twins' arch enemy - the Knightleigh family. Edgar is furious and desperate to find a way to bring his sister back to her senses and act as the evil twin she is supposed to be. Pet successfully delivers the comeuppance the twins deserve and earns their respect. But is Pet acting alone in his mischievous antics?
