Stevie Bell solved the case of Truly Devious, and now she's taking
her detecting skills abroad when she becomes embroiled in a mystery
from 1990s England. Another pulse-pounding and laugh-out-loud
stand-alone mystery from New York Times bestselling author Maureen

going well. Her boyfriend, David, is studying in London. Her
friends are obsessed with college applications. With the cold case
of the century solved, Stevie is adrift. There is nothing to
distract her from the questions pinging around her brain-questions
about college, love, and life in general. Relief comes when David
invites Stevie and her friends to join him for study abroad, and
his new friend Izzy introduces her to a double-murder cold case. In
1995, nine friends from Cambridge University went to a country
house and played a drunken game of hide-and-seek. Two were found in
the woodshed the next day, murdered with an ax. The case was

saw something she can't explain. This was no break-in. Someone's
lying about what happened in the woodshed. Seven suspects. Two
murders. One killer still playing a deadly game.

dying to go to for three whole summers. But on the last day of
school, her parents break the news: Maggie isn't going to Camp

fat camp. She's going to Camp Sylvania, run by world-famous
wellness influencer Sylvia Sylvania, who is known for her
soon-to-be-patented Scarlet Diet. When Maggie arrives at camp,
things are . . . weird. There are the humiliating weigh-ins and
grueling workouts, as expected. But the campers are also encouraged
to donate blood-at their age! The cafeteria serves only red foods
and the oddly specific rules change every day. There are even
rumors of a camp ghost. Despite these horrors, Maggie makes friends
and starts to actually enjoy herself. There are even tryouts for a
camp production of The Music Man! This place might not be so bad .
. . until campers start going missing and other suspicious things
begin happening-especially after dark. The camp ghost might be the
least scary thing about this place. . . .
