"A deliciously cosy and clever mystery with
buckets of charm, and a cast of characters you can't help but adore."
- Hana Tooke, author of The Unadoptables




Two girls who live in a hotel are drawn into a murder
mystery in this charming, classic-feeling cosy-crime children's
debut from bestselling Irish author Emily Hourican - perfect for
fans of Murder Most Unladylike, The Swifts and
Enid Blyton.
Twelve-year-old Meredith and ten-year-old Macy feel like the luckiest
girls around. The Ivy Hotel in Dublin is old, beautiful and
beloved, with a tight-knit staff that feel like family, and they
get to call it home.


Meredith and Macy's mum is the General Manager, and their modest
apartment is tucked away in a corner, but it has lots of perks.
The girls make friends with long-term residents - like Colin, the
quiet little boy who plays piano, and Agatha, the eccentric older
lady who stays in a plush suite with her dog, Milo.


The girls love spying on fancy events, sneaky treats from the
restaurant and knowing all the secret stairs and corridors that guests
never see, where the staff move around invisibly, making sure
everything runs like clockwork...


This is going to come in handy. Because within the cosy
walls of the Ivy Hotel, there is also danger, intrigue and threat.
Just as the hotel's new owners arrive, ready to sniff
out any excuse to make cuts and fire staff, the girls are faced
with their biggest task yet: a murder to solve.





A welcoming and super-cosy hotel setting with a loveable cast
of characters and a dash of danger, perfect for mystery fans age
9-12.

Alternating perspectives from two brilliant sisters - responsible
and emotional Meredith and fierce, logical Macy.

Full of suspense, sleuthing and twisting discoveries, as the
kids take the lead, working to cleverly uncover the identity of a
mysterious guest and his even more mysterious death...
