It also won a 2015 Waterstones Children's Book Prize in the 5-12 Fiction category. [7] Sequel and Series [ edit ] I really enjoyed getting more content about my favourite characters (especially hazel and alexander), and I'm glad that we'll still get to see them (to an extent) in the Ministry of Unladylike activity series (pls tell me who I have to threaten to get on the arc mailing list whenever they come out) :) I (40) got this for my daughter (8) but stole it and adored it so much that it is now MY book for good... she'll have to get her own copy! (Plus, I think she is more of a Rose than a Hazel and therefore might prefer something a little less murdery and a little more ladylike really). But then Hazel discovers the Science Mistress, Miss Bell, lying dead in the Gym. She thinks it must all have been a terrible accident – but when she and Daisy return five minutes later, the body has disappeared. Now the girls know a murder must have taken place . . . and there’s more than one person at Deepdean with a motive. Now Hazel and Daisy not only have a murder to solve: they have to prove a murder happened in the first place. Determined to get to the bottom of the crime before the killer strikes again (and before the police can get there first, naturally), Hazel and Daisy must hunt for evidence, spy on their suspects and use all the cunning, scheming and intuition they can muster. But will they succeed? And can their friendship stand the test? About This Edition ISBN:

Daisy and Hazel think baby Teddy is enough to deal with, but as always the girls are never far from a mystery. i don't really have much to say about this like i did for Death Sets Sail - i think that this was more a bridge into the new series than a commemoration of what had already happened in the murder most unladylike series, but the short stories were still fun and the author's notes at the end were :,)))It's the sixth murder mystery for The Detective Society! This time, though, one of them is the suspect... The Case of the Uninvited Guest: 5* - we finally got this story and it didn’t disappoint 😩 it was so funny too

And when someone very close to Daisy looks suspicious, the Detective Society must do everything they can to reveal the truth . . . no matter the consequences. The cutest part was of course Hazel and Alexander but while we have a much more fleshed out narrative on Alexander's side there wasn't enough of them and what they've been doing after Death Sets Sail. There wasn't quite enough information about anyone, really. It all felt rather disjointed, random and abrupt. She spent her teenage years at Cheltenham Ladies’ College, reading a lot of murder mysteries and hoping that she’d get the chance to do some detecting herself (she didn’t). She then went to university, where she studied crime fiction, and then worked at a children's publisher.There are six different stories here, set at different times in Hazel and Daisy's investigative careers, and while the book technically slots in at 6.5 and 8.5 in the series time frame, I think it is the perfect place to start if you want to get a taste for the style and content. A delight . . . The Agatha Christie-style clues are unravelled with sustained tension and the whole thing is a hoot from start to finish' Daily Mail When Hazel discovers Science Mistress Miss Bell lying dead in the Gym, she thinks it must have been a terrible accident - but when she and Daisy return a few moments later, the body has completely disappeared.
