In this second instalment of The Kimble Detective Agency series, we follow the imaginative and intelligent Peyton and his trusty, enthusiastic assistant Jackson Chadwick as they work together to unravel two separate and equally intriguing mysteries.

Together with Jackson, he uncovers some surprising secrets that have the potential to affect all their lives, and further secures the future of his already very successful detective agency in this charming, funny, thrilling and exciting adventure story.
