Kate Battista is feeling stuck. How did she end up running house and home for he
r eccentric scientist father and uppity, pretty younger sister Bunny? Plus, she'
s always in trouble at work - her pre-school charges adore her, but the adults d
on't always appreciate her unusual opinions and forthright manner.
Dr Battista
has other problems. After years out in the academic wilderness, he is on the ve
rge of a breakthrough. His research could help millions. There's only one proble
m: his brilliant young lab assistant, Pyotr, is about to be deported. And withou
t Pyotr... When Dr Battista cooks up an outrageous plan that will enable Pyotr t
o stay in the country, he's relying - as usual - on Kate to help him. Kate is fu
rious: this time he's really asking too much.
