Summary

'Top-grade misbehaviour' - The Guardian

JOIN THE DETENTION DETECTIVES ON THEIR FINAL CASE…


Not only was I was concerned about the missing teenager, there was also the distinct possibility that we might be the only ones looking for him in the right place…

It’s been four months since the Detention Detectives semi-solved their last mystery. But their biggest suspect remains at large, and when a local teen goes missing the must trio race against time to connect the clues…
  • Star Trek superfan DANIEL leads the investigation this time round, though his emotions might be getting in the way of cracking the case…
  • Music-lover JONNO is focusing on the local talent competition. It may seem silly to the others, but Daniel’s got the people skills and Lydia’s got the brains, so what do the Detectives even need him for…?
  • School reporter LYDIA is great at investigating a story. But with a very personal unsolved cold case on her hands and the newspaper to edit, she doesn’t have time for the boys’ dramas…
As the team are pulled in different directions it’s up to Daniel to bring them, the clues and their skills together, to solve the mystery of the missing teen before it’s too late.

There’s mystery, murder and misfits galore in the final instalment of…THE DETENTION DETECTIVES!
