Ministry of Unladylike Activity 3 isn’t publishing until autumn 2025 – but fear not, there WILL be new Detective Society content this year!
I’m beyond proud to present The Most Unladylike Puzzle Book, publishing on the 26th of September 2024. It features BOTH your favourite characters from the Murder Most Unladylike series AND your favourite characters from the Ministry of Unladylike Activity series – they’ll teach you important detective skills and set you brain-teasing puzzles, and for the first time ever you’ll be able to solve interactive mysteries along with them. Part a test of your logic skills and part a short story collection, it’s a great way in to the series for new fans – and existing fans will spot a lot of very exciting Easter eggs as they read.
All of the plots and puzzles in this book are entirely new (so you can’t cheat by knowing about my series!), and the action takes place after the end of Once Upon a Crime and The Body in the Blitz. And when I say ‘book’, it’s really TWO books, because we’ve split the story into two! There are TWO covers and TWO sides you can read from – all you have to do is flip the book over to choose between going on super spy missions with Eric, May and Nuala or solving mysteries at Deepdean and Weston with the Detective Society and the Junior Pinkertons.
This is what I’ve been working on all this spring, and I’m so delighted with how it’s turned out. I can’t wait for you all to read it in September – and of course, you can pre-order it now from Amazon, Blackwell’s, Waterstones or your local indie bookseller.
