Eleanor Jones is Playing with Fire by Amy Doak stirs up more mystery and danger in this fast-paced YA mystery.

Eleanor Jones isn't looking for trouble.

But someone is starting fires in Cooinda—and the first one looks like a murder. Eleanor is determined not to get involved, but when she receives a note warning her to "keep quiet," she can't help but work out who sent it.

Who had motive to murder Eleanor's neighbour? Could it really be one of her classmates? And are the fires connected to the car thefts in town? The more Eleanor tries to do the right thing, the more danger she finds herself in...
