But trouble has a habit of finding them, and it isn't long before a fresh mystery begins to unravel among the hills and dales. True to form, the girls can't resist \"a bit of investigating... a little light snooping... a sprinkle of scammery,\" pulling readers into a clever whodunnit that mixes humour, friendship and sharp observation. As a World Book Day title, Peak Peril is shorter and more accessible than a full novel, making it an ideal entry point for new readers and a treat for existing fans. Sharna Jackson brings her trademark diverse, contemporary voice to the story, with two Black sister-detectives at the centre of the action - representation that has made the series a standout in modern middle-grade crime fiction. Themes of curiosity, teamwork and standing up for what's right run throughout, wrapped in a page-turning mystery that's as fun to solve as it is to read. It's a great showcase of the series' acclaim.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFun, fast-paced World Book Day short story - ideal for reluctant or time-poor readers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFeatures fan-favourite detectives Nik and Norva from the High-Rise Mystery series\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGreat introduction to the series for new readers aged 7-9\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCelebrates diversity with two Black sister protagonists solving crime together\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact paperback format - perfect for school bags, trips and bedtime reading\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrom an award-winning, widely-praised children's mystery author\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nSharna Jackson is a British author and curator best known for the High-Rise Mystery series, featuring young detectives Nik and Norva.
