Críticas
"A skillful blend of golden era crime novel and boarding school romp, with a winning central relationship between plump, anxious Hazel, a new girl who has arrived from Hong Kong, and the super-confident blonde English rose, Daisy Wells. The novel works well both as an affectionate satire and an effective mystery story. . . . Top class."--Suzie Feay "Financial Times "
"Robin Stevens's MURDER IS BAD MANNERS is what I wish every mystery could be: a perfectly-plotted puzzle told in a deft and charming voice. The story is a brilliant mixture of classic detective work and contemporary humor--I enjoyed every page!"----Jonathan Auxier, author of The Night Gardener and Peter Nimble and His Fantastic Eyes
"Satisfyingly unpredictable. I did not guess the whodunit. Ripping good fun."--Alex O'Connell "The Times of London "
"Really cleverly done and unexpected for what I thought would be a straightforward whodunit caper."--Melissa Cox, Head Children's Buyer at Waterstones
"Reading Murder Is Bad Manners is like drinking cocoa by a fireside: It is warm and witty and deeply satisfying."--Katherine Rundell, author of ROOFTOPPERS and CARTWHEELING IN THUNDERSTORMS
"Murder Is Bad Manners lured me in with a charming British voice, and then, just as I started to get cozy, snap! I was trapped in a serious mystery problem. Robin Stevens develops her girl detectives with a light, deft touch and delivers denouement with a flourish."--Nancy Springer, author of the Enola Holmes series
"Stevens's engaging tale shines with the reflected charms of its detecting duo, a winsome combination of thoughtfulness and relish."--School Library Journal
"Friendship, boarding school, and a murder worthy of Agatha Christie."--The Bookseller
"[H]ighly enjoyable bunbreak reading."--Shelf Awareness
"Irresistible."--Kirkus Reviews [STARRED REVIEW]
Reseña del editor
Two friends form a detective agency—and must solve their first murder case—in this “sharp-witted debut” (Publishers Weekly, starred review) that is the first adventure in a brand-new middle grade mystery series set at a 1930s boarding school.
Daisy Wells and Hazel Wong are best friends at Deepdean School for Girls, and they both have a penchant for solving mysteries. In fact, outspoken Daisy is a self-described Sherlock Holmes, and she appoints wallflower Hazel as her own personal Watson when they form their own (secret!) detective agency. The only problem? They have nothing to investigate.
But that changes once Hazel discovers the body of their science teacher, Miss Bell—and the body subsequently disappears. She and Daisy are certain a murder must have taken place, and they can think of more than one person with a motive.
Determined to get to the bottom of the crime—and to prove that it happened—before the killer strikes again, Hazel and Daisy must hunt for evidence, spy on their suspects, and use all the cunning, scheming, and intuition they can muster. But will they succeed? And can their friendship stand the test?
