Description

A page-turning murder-mystery about identity, full of surprising twists, from the award-winning author of High-Rise Mystery and The Good Turn. Last night Wesley and his friends Josephine and Margot threw their neighbour Rachel a surprise birthday party. This morning, Rachel is dead. And Wesley is the one who finds her body. Rachel's friends throw a traditional Caribbean Nine Night celebration to help guide her soul to the next world. But Wesley, Margot and Josephine don't have time to mourn Rachel. They are determined to find out who did this - and find out what secrets Rachel was keeping... Sharna is the master of page-turning, twisty murder mysteries with a sparky urban voice, and in The Nine Night Mystery has delivered a fast paced and compelling whodunnit which will appeal to fans of Robin Stevens, Kereen Getten and the Lizzie and Belle Mysteries. She writes sharp, real, funny teenage dialogue and has packed this book with epic reveals and red herrings to keep readers guessing. Praise for Sharna Jackson- 'I utterly loved The Good Turn; it's bone-deep brilliant; a joy to the very end. It's so warm and so funny, and so ferociously on the side of justice and of hope. I adored it.' - Katherine Rundell
