A Good Girl's Guide to Murder
Young adult · age 13+ · 780L · 2023
Smart teen mystery that respects the reader's intelligence; Pip's forensic approach to a cold case teaches evidence-gathering without preaching, though the darker turns in the final act will test younger teens' tolerance for real peril.
The Reappearance of Rachel Price
Middle grade · ages 10–14 · 780L · 2024
A gripping, smartly-plotted mystery that models critical thinking and asks what truth means when eyewitnesses disagree — exactly the book that keeps a 10-year-old up past bedtime.
Good Girl, Bad Blood
Young adult · ages 14–18 · 800L
A taut, character-driven mystery sequel that deepens Pip's voice and tackles how narratives are built and broken; compelling enough to justify the age gate, though the stakes and social realism demand mature judgment.
