Es ist das erste, was Luzie an ihrem neuen Zuhause auff?llt. Aber die Ger?che f?hren nirgendwohin und der Schl?ssel, den Luzie unter einer Bodendiele findet, passt in kein Schloss. Gibt es in der Villa etwa ein verstecktes Zimmer? Gemeinsam mit ihrem kleinen Bruder Benno und dem Nachbarsjungen Mats macht sich Luzie auf die Suche. Als sie in den verborgenen Teil der Villa vordringen, trauen die Kinder ihren Augen kaum: Auf deckenhohen Regalen reihen sich zahllose Duftflakons aneinander, in denen es nur so schillert und sprudelt! Doch in den Fl?schchen schlummern nicht nur sch?ne ?berraschungen, sondern auch jede Menge Gefahren. Vor allem ein Flakon w?re besser f?r immer verschlossen geblieben?
