Librarian Sammi Cupertino thought her Klutz Curse was the most perilous thing about living in Eerie Falls, Ontario. At least until the annual gathering of the Puffin Rescue Society comes to their town. Sammi's eccentric grandfather gets to play host to the bird rescuers, so Sammi drafts her cute new girlfriend, Constable Courtney, to help with the awards ceremony. But Sammi and her friends find their small Canadian town suddenly perilous when a rescue society member is pummelled to death. To make matters even more precarious, a mundane author has invaded their magical town. Keeping their fae nature out of the author's next book is challenging every resident.

The Case of the Missing Moonstone (The Wollstonecraft Detective Agency, Book 1)
Author: Jordan Stratford
Publisher: Knopf Books for Young Readers
ISBN: 0385754426
Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 242
Book Description
History, mystery, and science collide in a new series for middle-grade readers, perfect for fans of The Mysterious Benedict Society and Lemony Snicket! Jordan Stratford imagines an alternate 1826, where Ada Lovelace (the world’s first computer programmer) and Mary Shelley (author of Frankenstein) meet as girls and form a secret detective agency! Lady Ada Byron, age eleven, is a genius. Isolated, awkward and a bit rude—but a genius. Mary Godwin, age fourteen, is a romantic. Adventurous, astute, and kind, Mary is to become Ada’s first true friend. And together, the girls conspire to form the Wollstonecraft Detective Agency—a secret constabulary for the apprehension of clever criminals. Their first case involves a stolen heirloom, a false confession, and an array of fishy suspects. But it’s no match for the deductive powers and bold hearts of Ada and Mary. Mystery fans will love this tween girl riff on Sherlock Holmes and John Watson. History buffs will be delighted to see all the real figures who play a role in this story and appreciate the extensive backmatter that helps separate truth from fiction. Parents and educators hoping to promote the STEM fields for girls will be thrilled to have a series where two girls use math, science, and creative analytical thinking to solve crimes. But most especially--emerging readers will love this series filled with humor, action, intrigue and wonderful artwork from Kelly Murphy.
