Happy publication day, Puzzle Book!

Puzzle book publication day

I’m delighted to say that The Most Unladylike Puzzle Book is out NOW in the UK and Ireland!

It’s packed full of puzzles – there are over 100 (!) to solve – and it features stories about all of your favourite Murder Most Unladylike and Ministry characters! There are chapters from Daisy, Hazel, Eric, May, Nuala, Beanie, George and Alexander, and each chapter will help you practice a different set of skills that every detective needs!

Even though there are two covers, it’s only one book – you solve half of the puzzles and read through the stories, and then you flip the book and solve the other half!

I’m so proud of it, and I really hope you love working through it.

If you want to meet me, here’s a link to my tour (with one new event added, a virtual event for schools!), and if you want to order your copy of the book, you can get it from Bookshop.org, Waterstones, Blackwell’s, Dubray, Eason’s and Amazon. And if you can, get down to your local store and pick up a copy – there are signed editions in a lot of independent bookstores this month!
