The Big Bad Wolf Murder is set in a world where the infamous wolf is dead, and worse, he was murdered. Alarick, the biggest and baddest wolf of the Tooth & Claw games, was legendary in the contest where Wolves battle Reds in a fierce game of "What's the Time, Mr Wolf?" But when Alarick drops dead during the championship final, his rival, Ruby Red, is horrified, especially since she gets the blame.

Realising she has been framed for the crime, Ruby and her wolf-cub friend, Fillan, go on the run, determined to find the real murderer. However, with a relentless detective, a wolf assassin, and a gangster granny on their tails, they will need all of Ruby's Tooth & Claw skills to save themselves and discover the truth.

This super-pacy fairy-tale crime romp from the bestselling author of The Train to Impossible Places is perfect for fans of Murder Most Unladylike and twisted fairy tales like Disney's Descendants.

"Perfect for any young readers who enjoy a spot of cosy crime." โ€“ The Sunday Express on P.G. Bell's The Beanstalk Murder
