The Sinclair's Mysteries Series

by
(51 reviews)

A cosy mystery series for middle grade readers who love Enid Blyton, Chris Riddell's Goth Girl and Robin Stevens' Murder Most Unladylike series!

Welcome to Sinclair's department store, where among the bonbons, hats and perfumes flying off the shelves, Miss Sophie Taylor and Miss Lilian Rose are set to solve some mysteries and crack impenetrable codes! All while devouring ice buns and munching on cucumber sandwiches, of course...

Join the dynamic duo as find precious jewels gone missing, unmask villains stealing priceless paintings, and uncover terrible plots that could put everything they love at risk! Using only their wits to dodge forgery, trickery and deceit on all sides, the two girls are the department store's only hope in this delightful cosy mystery quartet for middle graders!

Each of the books is set in the Edwardian period, making for fantastic detail and atmosphere, and each cover brilliantly illustrated by Julia Sarda. Katherine Woodfine has also written the Taylor And Rose Secret Agents books, another brilliant cosy mystery series for middle-graders.

All the Sinclair's Mysteries books in order:

Book 1: The Clockwork Sparrow (2015)
Book 2: The Jewelled Moth (2016)
Book 3: The Painted Dragon (2017)
Book 4: The Midnight Peacock (2017)
