NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Who killed Brooke Donovan? It’s the biggest mystery of the summer, and everyone in Castle Cove thinks they know what happened. But they''re wrong. Two unlikely friends come together to solve the case in this fast-paced, fun, modern Agatha Christie inspired thriller. "Part Agatha Christie, part Veronica Mars, and completely entertaining." —Karen M. McManus, #1 New York Times bestselling author of One Of Us Is Lying A PEOPLE MAGAZINE BEST BOOK OF SUMMER Last summer, Alice Ogilvie’s basketball-star boyfriend Steve dumped her. Then she disappeared for five days. She''s not talking, so where she went and what happened to her is the biggest mystery in Castle Cove. Or it was, at least. But now, another one of Steve’s girlfriends has vanished: Brooke Donovan, Alice’s ex–best friend. And it doesn’t look like Brooke will be coming back. . . Enter Iris Adams, Alice’s tutor. Iris has her own reasons for wanting to disappear, though unlike Alice, she doesn’t have the money or the means. That could be changed by the hefty reward Brooke’s grandmother is offering to anyone who can share information about her granddaughter’s whereabouts. The police are convinced Steve is the culprit, but Alice isn’t so sure, and with Iris on her side, she just might be able to prove her theory. In order to get the reward and prove Steve’s innocence, they need to figure out who killed Brooke Donovan. And luckily Alice has exactly what they need—the complete works of Agatha Christie. If there’s anyone that can teach the girls how to solve a mystery it’s the master herself. But the town of Castle Cove holds many secrets, and Alice and Iris have no idea how much danger they''re about to walk into.

The teen detective duo return to solve another mystery in the sequel to New York Times bestseller, The Agathas by Kathleen Glasgow and Liz Lawson ''Very gripping... very enjoyable.'' United By Pop Last year was eventful, to say the least. Alice and Iris were the talk of the town after they teamed up to solve the murder of Brooke Donovan. If it wasn’t for this unlikely duo, the wrong person would almost certainly be sitting in prison. The Castle Cove police aren’t exactly great at solving crimes. Now Alice is impatient for a new case. And as fate would have it, on the night of the annual dance at Levy Castle she walks right into a crime scene. Rebecca Kennedy, on the ground, in a pool of blood. And standing over Kennedy? One of Alice’s ex–friends – Helen Park. Of course, the police are sure it’s an open-and-shut case. But Castle Cove is full of secrets, and Alice and Iris are about to uncover one of its biggest – and most dangerous – secrets of all. Praise for The Agathas: ‘Part Agatha Christie, part Veronica Mars, and completely entertaining.’ Karen M. McManus, author of One Of Us Is Lying ‘Full of twists, mysteries and so much heart.’ Erin A. Craig, author of House of Salt and Sorrows

Grace, Henry, and Ally grew up together on the same block. They used to be best friends--until Grace''s testimony put Henry''s brother, Jake, away for killing their English teacher. Now, two years later, Ally and Henry hate Grace, and Grace is doubting what she thinks she saw that night. It feels like everyone''s getting a second chance, then, when due to a mistrial, Jake is suddenly released. And Henry knows his brother is innocent, but when Grace reaches out to say she’s rethinking what she saw the night of the murder, Jake’s reaction is confusing. He doesn’t want Henry—or Grace--getting involved. For Ally not getting involved isn’t an option, and there’s nothing Grace can say to convince Ally she’s not the enemy. But can Ally afford to push Grace out when she’s one of the only other people willing to believe in Jake’s innocence? The clock is ticking. Jake’s new trial date is about to be set, and he''s sure to be found guilty again unless there''s new evidence to prove he''s innocent. Grace, Henry, and Ally are going to have to decide whether you can trust an old friend now that they’re your enemy.

No último dia das bruxas, a ex-melhor amiga de Alice Ogilvie foi morta. Se não fosse pela improvável aliança de Alice com sua colega, Íris Adams, e sua biblioteca com a obra completa de Agatha Christie, provavelmente a pessoa errada estaria na prisão pelo crime. A polícia de Enseada do Castelo não é muito boa em solucionar crimes. Na verdade, eles são famosos por não resolverem nada. É por isso que, na noite do baile anual, Alice aproveita a oportunidade para explorar o Castelo Levy – o local de uma das mortes mais infames de Enseada do Castelo. Mona Moody, a inesquecível estrela do cinema, morreu lá há quase um século, e Alice tem quase certeza de que a polícia também errou nessa investigação. Mas, antes que possa sequer pensar em ir mais a fundo, ela cai de paraquedas na cena de um novo crime. Rebecca Kennedy é encontrada caída no chão com uma poça de sangue. E quem está de pé ao lado de Kennedy? Outra ex-amiga de Alice – Helen Park. A polícia de Enseada do Castelo acha que é um caso fácil, mas Alice e Íris têm certeza de que não pode ser tão simples. Park não é uma assassina – e as garotas sabem muito bem que na vida e seus mistérios as coisas raramente são o que aparentam. Para entender o presente, é preciso olhar para o passado. Enseada do Castelo é cheia de segredos, e Alice e Íris estão prestes a descobrir um dos maiores – e mais perigosos – de todos. A noite do crime é o aguardado segundo volume da série Agathas, coescrito pelas prestigiadas autoras Kathleen Glasgow e Liz Lawson. Nessa série, jovens adolescentes investigam mistérios sombrios em uma narrativa intrigante e divertida, que homenageia a obra de Agatha Christie trazendo muitos de seus elementos para os tempos atuais.
