About this deal

The Agathas is a slick YA murder mystery fiction which has elements of classic murder mystery with a delicious dollop of Scooby Doo.

Alice Ogilvie and Iris Adams became the talk of Castle Cove when they cracked the biggest case of the fall: the death of Brooke Donovan.There's plenty of the cattiness usually experienced in high school drama, but the idea of a "popular girl" and a "nerdy girl" becoming unlikely friends kind of tugged at my heartstrings.

I really enjoyed the evolution of their friendship, and I feel like I got to know both main characters thoroughly, slowly and steadily just like in real life. Corruption, greed and love are all at the heart of this story and Glasgow and Lawson’s perfect tone drags you up and down the garden path throwing in red herrings galore.
