A lot of us love the Scarlet and Ivy books by Sophie Cleverly. What if we told you she has a whole other mystery series for readers aged 8+? It's got beautiful black-and-white illustrations throughout by the one and only Hannah Peck.
In this series, our main character is young Violet Veil, daughter of the owner of the detective agency Veil & Sons Undertakers. She's learned a lot by observing how her father has solved many mysteries before. In each book, she too will have to solve her own mysteries, from dead boys wanting to understand what happened to them to mysterious fortune-tellers and more. All with the help of her trusty canine companion, Bones!
This is a great series for fans of Murder Most Unladylike, Sally Lockhart and Mysteries & Detective books for kids.
All the Violet Veil Mysteries books in order:
Book 1: A Case of Grave Danger (2021)
Book 2: A Case of Misfortune (2022)
Book 3: A Case of High Stakes (2024)
