She is quite cheerful and ia intelligent!!! She played two pranks which were funny😂 A welcome return to Deepdean. A murder witnessed from afar becomes the focal point for the Detective Agency this time around, but they are up against it as nothing is quite what it seems. A skilful blend of golden era crime novel and boarding school romp . . . Top class' Financial Times

Daisy Wells and Hazel Wong are taking a holiday on the world-famous Orient Express - and it's clear that each of their fellow first-class passengers has something to hide. I was happy to see our policeman again and see how he treated the girls like equals. Letting them handle things on their side and him doing stuff on his side. I loved that he talked to them, that he tried to discuss what was going on, and that he tried to help out. Of course, he still protected them, but not in a way that most adults would do.Daisy's glamorous mother is throwing a tea party for Daisy's birthday, and the whole family is invited, from eccentric Aunt Saskia to dashing Uncle Felix.

I loved that we saw Deepdean's anniversary, sure, there was some chaos and some unhappiness and let's not forget murder and mystery, but we also saw some other things that were so much fun. I loved how the school went all out for their anniversary.

When Hazel Wong's beloved grandfather passes away, Daisy Wells is all too happy to accompany her friend (and Detective Society Vice-President) to Hazel's family estate in beautiful, bustling Hong Kong. Hazel also showed more guts and bravery and I was happy that she is now really standing up for herself and not let Daisy just roll over her. She is my favourite girl out of our duo. I did feel sorry for her that her parents couldn't be there during the anniversary, then again, getting to England from Hong Kong isn't as easy as it is these days. It requires a long boat trip. Too long to get there on time. A feelgood blend of Malory Towers and Cluedo . . . Stevens has upped her game in this new volume' TelegraphBut it soon becomes clear that this party isn't really about Daisy at all. Naturally, Daisy is furious. Plus, I loved seeing the parents and seeing them interact. And even more fun... a lot of parents were from Deepdean or the nearby boy's school. Daisy wurde von ihrem hohen Thron gestoßen, Hazel hat mehr Selbstbewusstsein und die drei neuen Detekteimitglieder haben auch einiges zu bieten. Gerade die Konflikte zwischen den Teenagern sind wieder besonders gut eingeflochten.
