Overview:
Step into Helena Duggan’s spellbinding trilogy with this complete 3-book collection, crafted for readers who crave mystery, wit, and a touch of the uncanny. A Place Called Perfect introduces Violet, a girl who realises a seemingly flawless town is hiding a dark secret—one that will push her to question everything she’s been told. Special glasses to prevent blindness, eerie noises after dark, and a father’s sudden disappearance set Violet on a trail of clues alongside the enigmatic Boy. In The Trouble with Perfect, the town steadies itself after resistance to tyranny, only to face new shadows and the unsettling possibility that danger still lurks in the shadows. The Battle for Perfect brings the epic finale, where a looming zombie army and a fight for freedom force Violet and the townspeople to unite. This 3-book collection delivers a cohesive, spine-tingling journey from first spark to final showdown, all in a single, beautifully packaged set that fans will treasure.
What Makes This Collection Special:
This trio is built around a single, unforgettable voice—the determined Violet—whose curiosity and courage pull readers through a tightly wound mystery fantasy world. Duggan masterfully escalates stakes while keeping the storytelling lively and accessible, making it ideal for middle-grade readers and reluctant readers alike. The three adventures form a seamless arc: a guarded town, a battle for autonomy, and a climactic stand that reshapes everything. The set is not just a reading experience; it’s a total immersion into a uniquely realised universe with consistent tone, clever humor, and emotional resonance. It also makes a standout gift for birthdays, holidays, or back-to-school seasons, delivering value in a single, convenient package for families and collectors alike.
Books Included in This Collection:
A Place Called Perfect
Violet arrives in a town that looks almost too good to be true, where the streets are neat, rules are strict, and everyone wears protective glasses to prevent blindness. The world feels safe yet suffocating, and Violet’s curiosity won’t be silenced. She forms a cautious alliance with the enigmatic Boy, and together they begin peeling back the town’s glossy surface. Duggan’s wit keeps the suspense sharp while delivering warmth, inviting readers to question authority and cheer for a brave, stubborn heroine.
The Trouble with Perfect
Freedom has a price. As Violet and the townspeople test boundaries, loyalties fracture and old safeguards falter. The Archer twins’ shadow returns, more calculating than ever, and whispers of a zombie army raise the stakes from suspense to peril. Violet must decide who to trust—even when truth hurts—and navigate escalating danger while keeping hope alive. Duggan deepens character and world-building in this middle instalment, delivering bigger dangers, sharper humor, and a relentless pace that pulls readers toward the next page.
The Battle for Perfect
In the climactic finale, Violet and her allies rally a community on the brink, uncovering the final pieces of Perfect’s puzzle. The town fights for its future against a threat rooted in power and history as well as external peril. With nerve, courage, and heart, The Battle for Perfect resolves long-held mysteries while affirming the power of ordinary people joining forces. Duggan provides a satisfying ending that rewards loyal readers with emotional payoff and a sense of closure, while leaving room for new adventures in the world of Perfect.
