A 2021 Edgar(R) Award Winner, Best Juvenile A BookPage Best Book of
2020: Middle Grade A Mighty Girl's 2020 Books of the Year
Introducing Myrtle Hardcastle, your favorite new amateur detective:
a wickedly smart twelve-year-old with a keen interest in
criminology and a nose for murder in Victorian England.
Twelve-year-old Myrtle Hardcastle has a passion for justice and a
Highly Unconventional obsession with criminal science. Armed with
her father's law books and her mum's microscope, Myrtle studies
toxicology, keeps abreast of the latest developments in crime scene
analysis, and Observes her neighbors in the quiet village of
Swinburne, England. When her next-door neighbor, a wealthy spinster
and eccentric breeder of rare flowers, dies under Mysterious
Circumstances, Myrtle seizes her chance. With her unflappable
governess, Miss Ada Judson, by her side, Myrtle takes it upon
herself to prove Miss Wodehouse was murdered and find the killer,
even if nobody else believes he --not even her father, the town
prosecutor. With sparkling wit and a tight, twisty plot,
Premeditated Myrtle, the first in a series from an award-winning
author, introduces a brilliant young investigator ready to take on
hard cases and maddening Victorian rules for Young Ladies of
Quality in order to earn her place among the most daring and
acclaimed amateur detectives of her time or any other.
