## Description

Misfits and murder meet in this brilliantly fun new mystery series by debut author Lis Jardine. A perfect next read for fans of Sharna Jackson's The High-Rise Mysteries , Fleur Hitchcock's Murder in Midwinter , and Robin Stevens' Murder Most Unladylike . Finding a dead body at my new school was a pretty rubbish way to start. But actually getting mixed up in the case? I was bound to get into deep, deep trouble for that! Murder comes to Hanbridge High, and three Year Seven misfits want to solve the crime: New boy Jonno hopes playing detective will convince his parents that moving to Hanbridge was a big mistake. School reporter Lydia thinks her news story will sweep everything else off the front page. And young carer Daniel needs the police to arrest the right culprit - for his mum's sake. They may not be friends, but they're about to become. . . The Detention Detectives.
