Murder, Great for My Social Skills

@ Claire Hartnett

If 14-year-old Caroline wants her Revolut card topped up, then she must help her mother with their car boot sale stall once a month. A task also meant to improve her poor social skills. She despises everything about this – the weather, the customers, the risk of being spotted by her peers, and the weird customer who might be following her. When a dead body turns up at the car boot sale, Caroline is thrust into the middle of a real-life murder case. She must suppress her antsy attitude and join forces with her brothers, along with her friends, to unravel a series of clues and solve the case. Hiding stolen evidence, deceiving the police, navigating the alien world of Facebook and racing through the countryside, the group of friends close in on the answers.

With its fast pace and lovable teen characters, this murder mystery hits different. It is full of action and will treat you to both laugh-out-loud and edge-of-your-seat moments, keeping the reader guessing and glued to the page.

Seller Bio

Sold by: Claire Hartnett
When stacks of unread teen books became a nuisance at home, I knew I needed to have a conversation with my daughter about her tendency to read chapter one (and maybe chapter two) and then walk away, never to return to the book again. Why was that? Her answer: ‘Because the characters aren’t very interesting and the stories are not very exciting. Oh, and they don’t make me laugh.’ I delved deeper, asking what her idea of the perfect book would be. ‘A murder mystery that’s funny and happens somewhere like here, where we live,’ was her reply. ‘Ok,’ I said, ‘I’ll write a book especially for you.’
So, what started as a way to encourage my daughter to read, snowballed into a much bigger project. Once I had started, I couldn’t stop. I finished the book, she enjoyed reading it and I thought, maybe others would like to read it too.
Murder, Great for My Social Skills is the result. For all you parents of reluctant readers, don't give up - there is hope! Maybe this will be the book to get them hooked. And it's not just a book for teens and young adults, this book is cross-generational - parents will love it too! Happy reading!
