A Case of Grave Danger follows Violet Veil, who wants nothing more than to prove her worth and become her father’s apprentice at Veil & Sons Undertakers. One rain-soaked night, she gets her chance when she meets a boy, Oliver, wandering around the graveyard. Only, the last time Violet saw Oliver, he was indoors and very much dead, waiting to be buried. Violet has just found her first case, and it doesn’t get bigger than this: can she, with the help of her dog, Bones, help Oliver solve his own ‘murder’?

About the Author

Sophie Cleverly was born in Bath in 1989. She wrote her first story at the age of four, though it used no punctuation and was essentially one long sentence. Thankfully, things have improved somewhat since then, and she has earned a BA in Creative Writing and MA in Writing for Young People from Bath Spa University. Now working as a full-time writer, Sophie lives with her partner in Wiltshire, where she has a house full of books and a garden full of crows. The books largely consist of fantasy and historical novels; many of them for children and young adults. You probably don’t want to know what the crows consist of. Hannah Peck is the bestselling illustrator of Somebody Swallowed Stanley, Butterfly Bouquet and My Friend Sleep. She lives in Brighton.
