Jump on board with Silver, the Cruise Ship Kid, in the hilarious new detective adventure series from debut author and West-End actress, Emma Swan.

There's four things you should know about me:

1. I live on a cruise ship 2. My name is Silver. Yes, really 3. I've never had a best friend my own age :( 4. I'm definitely not a detective

Somehow, though, I'm now investigating the CASE OF THE MISSING MEGA-EXPENSIVE WATCHES. But, I've got a plan. If I can solve the crime, then surely the kids on board will want to be friends with me. Right?

I've had lots of help (interference) from the Gang, but I won't tell you about them because they are all over 80 and prefer playing bingo to solving crimes.

So, do you want to be definitely-not-a-detective too and help me catch the thief at sea?

This book is:

  • 50% crime-solving + 50% friendship = 100% FUN!
  • Written in diary form
  • Inspired by the author's childhood growing up on an actual cruise ship!
  • Filled with doodles, activities, and lots of space to scribble!
  • Pamela Butchart meets Tom Gates, set at sea.
