When will this arrive by?
Ruth is not thrilled to be spending the weekend at the family farm visiting the ancient GG, her coolly distant step-grandmother. With no internet or phone coverage, Ruth occupies herself by re-reading old Agatha Christie novels, eavesdropping on the adults, and definitely not daydreaming about her sort-of-cousin Dylan.
But when GG dies under suspicious circumstances, Ruth's dull weekend turns into an enforced-family-holiday-slash-possible-murder-investigation - and she's not about to let the police get in the way of her chance to solve a real-life murder mystery. With Dylan as the Watson to her Holmes, Ruth soon discovers that plenty of people had reasons to be rid of GG, and her list of suspects grows to comprise everyone in the house. Including, in the interests of fairness, herself.
'Prepare to be charmed!' Nancy Springer, bestselling author of The Enola Holmes Mysteries
'Who knew murder could be so much fun? I enjoyed every single moment of this laugh-out-loud mystery.' Amy Doak, bestselling author of Eleanor Jones is Not a Murderer

Industry Reviews
'I enjoyed every single moment of this laugh-out-loud mystery.' Amy Doak, bestselling author of Eleanor Jones is Not a Murderer
'The magic of this novel is the feisty character and smart humour of Ruth; she is self-deprecating, witty, incisively observant of others, tactfully deferential to the adults but quietly tenacious and resourceful in her private quest for the truth. There is a timeless appeal of the old-fashioned, wood-panelled whodunnit; Kate Emery knows it, her young adult readers will surely concur.' Magpies
