Daisy
and Hazel have ended the school year and are off to tour Europe on the Orient
Express with Hazel's father. After
having solved two mysteries, they are under strict instructions from Hazel's
father that they are not to go looking for trouble. Hazel wants to point out that they don't go
looking for mysteries, but sometimes detecting and justice need to be
served. So what are they to do when they
discover a spy on board and someone is murdered? Good middle school mystery. I really like Hazel's voice and she has good
instincts. Daisy is still overbearing at
times, but is learning they both have their strengths. I appreciate that the author doesn't talk
down to the reader and provides clues throughout but isn't obvious about the
ending.
