The Case of the Missing Treasure

I, the Honourable Daisy Wells, have decided to give an account of another mystery the Detective Society has faced in recent weeks. It was very exciting, and very heroic, and I was very brilliant and brave . . .

A daring thief has been robbing London's most famous museums. When Daisy's birthday treasure hunt leads them right into the path of the culprit, Daisy and Hazel realise where they'll strike next - the Ancient Egyptian mummy room at the British Museum!

With help from their friends (and rivals), the Junior Pinkertons, the girls must crack codes, unravel clues and race against time to solve the mystery.

Reviews

A fitting, socially conscious novel

—— Kirkus

This one will fly off the shelves.

—— Booklist

Robin Stevens's hugely successful Murder Most Unladylike detective series, which has a passionate following for its period flavour, ingenuity and belief in kindness and tolerance, comes to an end . . . Inspired by Agatha Christie's Death on the Nile and set in the 1930s, the story unfolds neatly and is satisfyingly twisty

—— Nicolette Jones , Sunday Times

A clever murder mystery that sucks the reader in and pays homage to queen of crime, Agatha Christie. This is a fantastic read that should please fans

—— Irish News

Praise for Sharna Jackson:
Jackson's voice is distinct and original, while her deft characterisation and evocation of place make for a funny, engaging modern mystery.

—— Guardian

Praise for Sharna Jackson:
This story reads with a rare freshness and energy. The voices and the setting are convincing and vivid... an intriguing mystery

—— The Times
