Murder on the Safari Star

M. G. Leonard has made up stories since she was a little girl, but back then adults called them lies or tall tales and she didn't write them down. As a grown up, she has written stories about fantastical beetles, beautiful birds and thrilling train rides. Her books have been translated into over forty languages and won many awards. She is the vice president of the insect charity Buglife, and a founding author of Authors4Oceans.
She lives in England, by the sea, with her husband, two sons, a dog called Nell, and a variety of exotic beetles. She is the bestselling writer of children's books such as The Ice Children, Beetle Boy, the Adventures on Trains series and The Twitchers books. Sam Sedgman is a bestselling author and presenter. Before writing stories for children, he worked as a playwright, journalist, and digital producer, and founded a company making murder mystery treasure hunts for adventurous Londoners.
Written with his friend, M. G. Leonard, The Highland Falcon Thief was Sam's first book for young readers. A lifelong fan of puzzles, games, and detective fiction, he grew up with a railway at the bottom of his garden and has been mad about trains ever since. He lives in London. Elisa Paganelli was born in Modena (Italy) in 1985, and since childhood books have been her bestfriends. After completing artistic studies she made a career in advertising and has been the founder and owner of a small award winning design and trade business.
She now lives and works in UK as a freelance Illustrator and Creative Designer, accompanied by her beloved pets. Elisa loves quietness, the wind and she truly feels home when in the wild nature. On her bedside table you'll find a pile of psychology books, and very often one of her cats.
