Description
A missing child and an apartment that should be empty spur two tweens to solve an increasingly tangled neighborhood mystery in this page-turning middle grade debut.
Valory has developed an unfortunate reputation as a thiefโprimarily because she steals thingsโthough she has resolved to change her ways. Rook is a total asparagus-eater (a.k.a. a good kid), but he likes to spy on his neighbors. Nobodyโs perfect, right?ย ย
The twelve-year-olds form an unlikely alliance when they encounter suspicious behavior in an โemptyโ apartment across the alley from Rookโs house. While agoraphobia keeps home-schooled Rook trapped on his property, confident and street-smart Valory can roam the scene undetected. Their opposite personalities might, in fact, be key to their success.ย
But their amateur detective mission morphs into something more sinister when they realize the apartment next door could be connected to a recent kidnapping. When the sleuths realize theyโre also being watched, the pressure is on to unmask the villainโฆ before she snatches them, too.ย
This hijinks-heavy mystery written in dual POV reads like Only Murders in the Building for tweens.ย Perfect for wannabe sleuths and nosy neighbors!
