Deep dive into the marvellous mystery collection of ‘Selected Augusta Huiell Seaman’. Our adventure kicks off with two teenage strangers – and one very strange beach - in 'The Dragons Secret'. We’ll then investigate the peculiar case of a haunted house and its quiet inhabitants in ‘The Girl Next Door’. Why can’t the careful and quiet Cicely Marlowe leave? And why does the older woman insist on covering her face with a veil? Last but not least, there are secrets and silence on Slipper Point in ‘The Slipper-Point Mystery’... Weaving together a rip-roaring fun, fierce, and fiery mystery collection full of female leads, ‘Selected Augusta Huiell Seaman’ is a must-read collection for fans of ‘Malory Towers’ and Millie Bobby Brown’s ‘Enola Holmes’. Augusta Huiell Seaman (1879-1950) was an American author of children’s literature, best known for her children’s mysteries.
