The Detention Detectives: Talent for Trouble
Get ready for the final case in The Detention Detectives series! A contemporary middle-grade murder mystery, perfect for fans of Fleur Hitchcock, Sharna Jackson, and Robin Stevens.
The Detention Detectives may have solved their last mystery, but when a local teen disappears, they suddenly realise the cases are connected. The problem is...
Star Trek superfan Daniel takes the lead, but his anger towards their main suspect might be getting in the way of their investigation.
Music-lover Jonno is totally distracted by the school talent competition. And it may seem silly to the others, but Daniel's got the people skills and Lydia's got the brainsβso do they even need him?
School reporter Lydia has a separate unsolved crime to deal with, and a newspaper to edit too! She really doesn't have time for the boys' dramas...
Can Daniel bring the Detectives together to crack their BIGGEST case before it's too late?

About the Author
Lis Jardine grew up in various vicarages across London and the Black Country. She has been a lifelong reading addict and is rarely spotted in the wild without a book, usually a Golden Age murder mystery or a comic fantasy. She currently lives in Cheshire with her husband and nearly-grown daughters, where she combines the two best jobs in the world- secondary school librarian and children's novelist. Lis studied English Literature at the University of Warwick and completed the MA in Writing for Young People at Bath Spa University. She has not won any prizes since a General Knowledge quiz at primary school. In her spare time, Lis likes to watch TV, learn Norwegian (1300 day Duo streak!) and invent unlikely vegan sandwich recipes. Follow Lis Jardine on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram @LisJardine
