Book Synopsis

An exciting and funny new murder mystery from debut author Niyla Farook. Perfect for fans of HIGH RISE MYSTERY!

Separated when they were 6 months old, twins Ani and Riri couldn’t be more different. Loud and adventurous Ani wants to be a sleuth when she grows up. Shy and quiet Riri prefers books to people, and just wants a safe, germ free job when she grows up.

When they’re forced to spend the summer together, Ani is convinced it’s going to be another Great Twin War like the last time they tried family bonding. But this summer is different – there’s a murder, and their dad is arrested as the prime suspect. Can they work together to protect their family and solve the mystery?

Our Review Panel says...

A new and exciting murder mystery from debut author Niyla Farook, takes on the thrills, twists and turns of a family estranged that then (thankfully) reunites.

Twins Ani and Riri are two parts of a very different puzzle – one loud and ready for adventures, the other quiet, preferring reading to talking. But when needs must, they have to put their differences aside to solve a very different problem. Secret sleuths will LOVE Niyla Farook’s funny middle-grade murder mystery featuring the twins, Ani and Riri, who investigate the death of a local café owner. The girls must put their differences aside and learn to use each other’s strengths and skills when their very own father becomes a suspect. Can they work together, protect their family and solve the mystery?

Perfect for fans of Murder Most Unladylike and HIGH RISE MYSTERY, Farook has bridged that gap between junior chapter books and something with a little more bite to it! This mystery will not fail to keep the pages turning, and the reader guessing!
