The Blurb On The Back:
Hello.
I am Rory Branagan. I am actually a detective. My school is having a talent show - with Mr Bolton’s ridiculous rap, Mr Meeton’s epic guitar solos and my friend Cat’s amazing dance - but, right in the middle of it, there is the deadliest crime in the history of our school. I have to find out who did it and why - before they strike again!
( The Review (Cut For Spoilers): )
The Verdict:
The fourth in Andrew Clover’s comedy mystery series for children aged 9+ is more substantial than the first book and gives a clearer indication of what happened to Rory’s dad (promising heart ache ahead). Ralph Lazar’s illustrations work brilliantly to bring the story to life, there is a poo joke that genuinely made me giggle and while I wanted a little more development for Cat I did enjoy discovering that she isn’t as unflappable as she seems.
Thanks to the Amazon Vine Programme for the review copy of this book.
