The Case of the Girl in Grey (The Wollstonecraft Detective Agency, Book 2)

By Jordan Stratford | Publisher: Random House Children's Books

About the book

Now in paperback, a second comic case to test the brains and bravery of the intrepid Wollstonecraft detectives--Ada Bryon Lovelace and Mary Shelley.
 
The Wollstonecraft Detective Agency was supposed to be a secret constabulary, but after the success of their first case, all of London knows that Lady Ada and Mary are the girls to go to if you have a problem.
 
Their latest case is a puzzler indeed: A dead father, a missing will, an escaped lunatic, and a hasty engagement. How does it all connect? With the help (and sometimes hindrance) of their sisters Jane and Allegra, these girls break codes, break a girl out of the hospital, and break up a very bad betrothal.
 
Praise for The Case of the Girl in Grey:
 
\"Mystery fans ... will relish the girls' romp around the stately home; discovery of an encrypted clue (in the crypt, of course); and unraveling of the mystery.\"--Booklist
 
Praise for The Case of the Missing Moonstone:
\"An enjoyable plot, resourceful heroines and fun writing.\" --Wall Street Journal
 
\"Smart and witty. . . . The detectives in training use quick thinking, book smarts, and social know-how to find a stolen gemstone. Comical narration and dialogue will charm readers thoroughly.\" --Publishers Weekly
 
“Equal parts laughs and adventure, this lively mystery will keep you guessing till the end!” –Discovery Girls
