Reviews
“Hurrah for a new series from Lauren St John! It’s literary Katnip for the summer holidays — especially for dedicated pet fanciers... St John writes with apparent ease, but refuses to compromise on language while mixing modern life with old-fashioned Blyton-style follow-the-clues mystery. It’s an excellent combo. If this first invigorating book is anything to go by, St John had better start writing some follow-ups.”Alex O'Connell, Saturday Times, Children's Book of the Week
“St John's book is suspenseful in its shifting possibilities, constructed with care, scattered with information, techno-savvy and engaging in its characterisation”Nicolette Jones, Children's Book of the Week, Times
“St John is a wonderful writer... this is just the sort of thoroughly wholesome novel that should really be consumed outdoors.”Emily Bearns, Telegraph
“Warm, intriguing characterisation with just the right amount of peril - not to mention a resident wildcat.”Imogen Russell Williams, Guardian
