After discovering their parents are still alive and their homeland of Gerander is in danger, mouse triplets Alistair, Alice, and Alex, and their friend Tibby Rose, have joined the underground rebel organization FIG.

Cheeky and entertaining, The Spies of Gerander is an action filled sequel to the first book in The Song of the Winns series, The Secret of the Ginger Mice.

Separated from their brother, Alistair, on a summer's night, mouse siblings Alex and Alice embark on a determined rescue mission and investigate the activities of an elusive underground spy operation; while Alistair, who has encountered ginger-colored mouse Tibby Rose, tries to make sense of what has happened to him.
