Shock for the Secret Seven: (The Secret Seven Series): 13 Paperback

Something unexpected upsets the Secret Seven's routine in the thirteenth case, and the group has to work out what it means. The investigation proceeds as the series always has, through watching, questioning and comparing accounts, with the members relying on one another rather than on adults. This volume is slightly longer at 160 pages, though the chapters stay short and the vocabulary stays plain throughout. Readers who like the reassurance of a formula will find it intact, since the interest lies in the particular puzzle rather than in any change of method. Details worth noting: • The thirteenth title in the Secret Seven sequence • 160 pages, a little longer than several earlier volumes • Paperback edition from Hodder Children's Books • A publisher age guide of twelve years and upwards For children reading detective fiction independently, and for collections completed through Boipoka.
