I would recommend this book to older children as it can be a bit scary, but it is incredibly exciting, and I just couldn’t put it down.

The Five Clues is a fantastic book about a girl called Edie who lives a normal life in London until her mum suddenly dies at Finsbury Park tube station. Her world is turned upside down after finding a note at her mother’s stone setting. Shockingly she finds out that mum’s death was a successful murder and that she had been investigating some illegal activity. Edie has been given a clue to find out about her murder. I wonder how many lives will be lost. Who murdered her mother and why? The author has given 5 cryptic clues that are hidden in the book, helping me work out who the murderer is. It is an absolutely brilliant book, that grips you all the way through and I can’t wait for the new Outside Chance book to come out. I would recommend this book to older children as it can be a bit scary, but it is incredibly exciting, and I just couldn’t put it down.
