Four kids are put to the test to test their abilities. These four are the only ones who made it through. Now they must go through a few mysterious events and eventually find out the reason behind everything.
When we first met the intrepid, orphaned quartet that made up a large part of the Mysterious Benedict Society we were left feeling that surely this couldn't be the last adventure that they'd be on together...and we were absolutely right.
