It was a good book

It was very interesting because they had to figure out who was sending the poison-pen letters, who pushed Josephine out of the window and who poisoned the food one night.

It is a really good book but a little scary.

With a ballet performance about to begin, can the twins discover who is behind the series of accidents and poison pen letters whilst keeping secrets from each other? This is a book I would definitely recommend as the mystery just grows in an incredibly intriguing way.

This book was about twins called Scarlet and Ivy who in this book are tracking down who there mother really was. It is the third one in the series. My favourite character was Ariadne, Scarlet and Ivy's best friend. I would reccomend these to slightly older readers, years 5 and 6

This book was incredible and i loved the way with how nearly every night you heard the high heals and the clattering of the keys and you knew it was the same person every time. I very much enjoyed this book and will be hoping to read the rest of the series

This became more interesting by the minute! This series just keeps getting better with each book. It was almost like there were several mysteries all in one!
