The Blurb On The Back:

Twelve dastardly crimes have been committed.
They seem impossible …
But can you solve them?


The twelve stories in this collection contain murder, mayhem, poison and plot, dognapping, safe-breaking, sabotage and biscuits.

Only the intrepid young detectives – and the reader – can crack the cases and save the day. Are you up for the Crime Club’s challenge?


The Review (Cut For Spoilers): )

The Verdict:

Introduced and edited by Katherine Woodfine, this anthology of 12 crime fiction stories for readers aged 9+ is a perfect introduction to the genre. Woodfine has divided the anthology into four sections – Impossible Mysteries (essentially locked room mysteries), Canine Capers (crimes where dogs help or feature in the mystery), Poison Plots (self-explanatory) and Closed-System Crimes (crimes where only a limited number of people could have committed it)

MYSTERY AND MAYHEM was released in the United Kingdom on 5th May 2016. Thanks to Amazon Vine for the review copy of this book.
