When Scarlet,Ivy and Rose go on a school trip they think that there is something strange going on. Can they find out what is actually going on and is it related to Rose? I hope you will read this book.

My favourite character is Ivy because she is smart and clever. On the other hand, Scarlet is cheeky and brave which is not my type. I love it! I would recommend it to anybody who likes mystery.

An interesting book that reveals many secrets of the last novels in the series. There was a really unexpected ending so it is worth reading to the end.

Sophie Cleverly was quite smart when writing this book but i found it a bit too unrealistic and I felt like the ending was the wrong one for this story
