Jonno's a HUGE murder mystery fan, and when the wrong person's arrested for the crime, he realises playing detective might just be a perfect Plan B. He's not alone; Star Trek superfan Daniel and snoopy school reporter Lydia have their own, secret reasons for wanting to solve the case. . . And the list of teachers who wanted to see Mr Baynton dead is LONG. While Jonno doesn't want new besties. . . he might need all the help he can get. ©2023 Lis Jardine (P)2023 Penguin Audio
