'This book was a delight from start to finish. I laughed. I cried. And I very much enjoyed attempting to solve the case with Pip (who I now want to be my best friend). I didn't guess the twist, and I don't think many people will. Holly Jackson has absolutely killed it with her debut!', Aisha Bushby, author of A Pocketful of Stars and contributor to the award-winning A Change is Gonna Come

A fun and intelligent YA novel, the audio book was thoughtfully and well produced. The female protagonist was great and I look forward to listening to the sequel on Xigxag next!
