Ace detective Laura Marlin returns in another gripping adventure mystery for World Book Day 2014, from award-winning author, Lauren St John.
When a prize-winning essay earns Laura Marlin an invitation to a midnight picnic on mysterious Bodmin Moor she can hardly wait, especially since her best friend, Tariq, and husky, Skye, get to come too.
But Bodmin is a place steeped in legend and as the fog descends it becomes hard to separate myth from reality. When a freak accident leaves the children alone, Laura has to use all her powers of deduction to outwit an enemy who may not even exist.

They camped out on Dartmoor, and one person told ghost stories about a cat, which was weird.

Because they camped out on Dartmoor, and they were able to stay up late and tell ghost stories.

If you like mystery this is the perfect book for you. Its about a group of year 6 children who go on a school trip to Bodmin Moor for a midnight picnic

I didnt really enjoy this book because I thought that they could have made the book more exciting and interesting. Like when the teacher and camilia goes missing during the night, it turns out that the teacher was asleep in an arm chair and camilia was stuck in a bog.They also said that the moors were haunted so while they had a verry good story line I feel it was not further developed.
