Especially since he's the third butler to die in a week!

Knives aren't just for cutting cucumber sandwiches, you know . . .

I thought that this was a really mysterious murder book. My thoughts on what I have read are that I didn't expect Arundel to be the murderer. My favourite character was Rose because she was determined to get to the bottom of the mystery of all the murders. I would recommend this book to other who like murder mysteries.

I really liked the book. It's a fantasy mystery book. My favourite character is Rose Raventhorpe, a young girl who lives in the victorian area in York. I would recommend this book for people who like reading mysteries and solving crimes.

If murder happens in a posh household it’s a big deal. Especially when it actually happens in the Raventhorpe family home.

This book had me on the edge of my seat. It was really good but it was impossible to guess the murderer!

This book was very funny and it was a murder mystery but Rose investigated and found out why and who did this because her own butler died. I recommend this book.

I really liked this book. It was very surprising because all of the butlers were trained in combat.
Mademoiselle Majorca Pumpernickel 29.07.2020

I loved this book because it was excitingly scary and I liked characters too. I would recommend it to all young readers!
Professor Rose Skateboard 27.07.2020

I really enjoyed this book - it was gripping from the start. I liked Argle, who was a really nice person with an air of mystery about him. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes a good murder mystery (although it is very descriptive of the deaths).
Dame Petronella Palm-tree 23.07.2020

I really enjoyed this book as I loved the magic in this when the cat statues come to life! My favorite character is Charlie Malone as he was really funny! I would recommend this book to anyone who likes adventure and mystery books!
