Once Upon a Crime

Featuring six marvellous mini-mysteries, including four original, brand-new and never-seen-before stories!

Discover The Case of the Second Scream, set aboard the ship carrying Daisy and Hazel back from Hong Kong, and The Case of the Uninvited Guest, where Uncle Felix and Aunt Lucy's wedding is the target for an unlikely threat. The Hound of Weston School sees the Junior Pinkertons investigating, and Hazel's little sister May Wong shows her ambition to be the greatest spy ever in The Case of the Deadly Flat. The Case of the Missing Treasure sees the detectives crack fiendish codes to catch a daring thief who is targeting London's most famous museums, while murder follows our sleuths on holiday in The Case of the Drowned Pearl.

The perfect book for all Detective Society fans and avid readers of the Murder Most Unladylike series.
Few series can maintain the thrills and pace over nine books, but Stevens has done so with aplomb . . . Fiendishly clever plotting, a gorgeous Egyptian backdrop, a startling denouement and romance for both our heroines. A triumphant finale for a much-loved series
