Description
When Nancy Parker gets her first position as a housemaid to Mrs Bryce, it's not exactly her dream job - she'd rather be out solving mysteries.

Reviews
- 'One to put under the microscope of your budding Holmes.' - Alex O'Connell, The Times Saturday Review
- Praise for The Dangerous Discoveries of Gully Potchard This colourful Victorian adventure story takes its inspiration from the tradition of classic children's literature . . . in which brave children triumph over unpleasant adults. With a lively cast of characters and an exciting plot, this is a pacy and enjoyable adventure. - Booktrust
- Praise for The Dangerous Discoveries of Gully Potchard Dahl meets Dickens in this rollicking tale - Teach Primary
- 'It's a good read, with an authentic background and the chance to work things out for yourself.' - Parents in Touch
- Praise for The Mysterious Misadventures of Clemency Wrigglesworth a magnificent, madcap book - Julia Lee is like an anarchic Frances Hodgson Burnett - Katherine Rundell, author of Rooftoppers.
- Highly entertaining read - Primary Times
- 'An entertaining, humorous story with a very likeable heroine' - The School Librarian
