Elodie and Oscar are back with an all-new heart-stopping case, but this time, they get a little extra help from the pros! When an ancient artifact goes missing during a party at The Biltmore, fingers are pointed in all directions. Luckily, Elodie, Oscar, and Carnegie are on the case, and so are Elodie’s parents! Finally, she’ll be able to prove she has what it takes to join the famous LaRue Art Crime Detective Agency.
