Nik and Norva are thrill seeking teenagers, with crushes, love for music, sarcastic remarks and an eagerness to solve mysteries. I really enjoyed this book because it was interesting and the plot had a lot of twists. My favourite characters are Nik and Norva because they solved the case. I would definitely recommend this book to someone else. I had a laugh at how Norva constantly just shut off when Mark was near. Haha, I remember that when I was her age and the boy of my dreams would walk by. Mehsi.exe has died.Jane. On the one hand I did like her. But I just found it weird that she could come in the apartment. Even later when we learn what is going on, I was like, maybe at least tell the girls instead of just acting like their home is your home? You can’t just lurk in the freaking dark girl.

Nik and Norva are two very different siblings with one big thing in common. They are detectives! They are nosey, gobby and always on the lookout for a new mystery. Only it hits a bit too close to home when they find friend and art teacher Hugo dead! But who done it!? All the evidence points to their dad, but when he is arrested, they are under pressure to prove his innocence.

In 2013, Wheatley started looking into who held the rights to the book, which led him to Thomas. [13] Wheatley has remarked: "The book makes as much sense now as it did then. It was written in the '70s, projecting itself into a near future, but we live in that future now. We're almost in a new version of the '70s." [14] Marsh, Calum (9 December 2013).
