Theodora Markson (his chaperone and is known for her unruly hair and being an incompetent member of the VFD) investigate different crimes that come their way, Lemony makes some foes (one of which is an infamous villain that is known by the handle of Hangfire) and some friends. He has to protect the Bombinating Beast, which is a statue that many desire, including Hangfire. This is Lemony’s main mission while apprenticing for VFD.

Who Could That Be at This Hour?: This is the first novel in the “ATWQ” series and was released in the year 2012. This adventure all started in a town that was fading. Lemony Snicket (only a young boy) is far from those that he knew or trusted and begins an apprenticeship for an organization that is held in both secrecy and mystery. Lemony asked some questions that should not have been in his mind.
It is now that he has written an account he should not have and no one should read. Absolutely no one, he is not even sure if he should be reading it. And he is the one that actually wrote it all out.
When Did You See Her Last?: This is the second novel in the “ATWQ” series and was released in the year 2013. What he should have asked was how someone that was missing could be in more than one place at the same time. Instead he asked four wrong questions. Here is the second one.
Here is a new case that Lemony has to solve when his chaperon get a job to find a missing girl. Is she a runaway or was she abducted by someone? Could she have stopped in at a diner somewhere or was she spotted at the store? Is any of this really your business?
Shouldn’t You Be in School?: This is the third novel in the “ATWQ” series and was released in the year 2014. Lemony is now investigating an arson, and quickly finds himself thrust into a big mystery that envelopes the entire town. He wonders who is setting the fires in Stain’d by the Sea.
