Publisher's summary

Eleven-year-old Tippy Chan lives in a small town in a quiet part of the world - where her uncle Pike escaped from the first chance he got as a teenager. 

Now Pike is back with his new boyfriend, Devon, to look after Tippy while her mum's on a cruise. Tippy's in love with her uncle's old Nancy Drew books and is desperate to solve a real mystery. 

When her teacher's body is found beside Riverstone's only traffic light, Tippy's moment has arrived. She and her minders form the Nancys, a secret amateur detective club - though their adventure quickly morphs into something more dangerous. 

Regardless of their own safety, and despite the constant distraction of questionable fashion choices in the town that style forgot, the Nancys know only they can stop the killer from striking again.

Great mystery, camp side stories, fantastic performance

Loved this audiobook skilfully narrated by Sara Lynam. Each character had a distinct voice that came through, the mystery was thrilling and scary at times, the emotions real! Tippy was super relatable too so going on this journey with her was not a challenge. Great music history lessons too haha!

Good story but pauses are distracting

Sara Lynam is a good narrator for this book but there a quite of lot of oddly timed and long pauses throughout the book.
I really recommend the book but the audiobook should be listened to at a faster pace to try and minimise the length of the pauses which are quite distracting.

Distracting

The narrator did a giood job of the characters, but her tech skills could do with some work. There was a stop/start issue and the sound of the mouse scrolling was very distracting.
