Description
Truly Devious A Mystery by Maureen Johnson is set in Ellingham Academy, a famous private school in Vermont. Founded by Albert Ellingham, it was meant to be a place where learning is a game, full of riddles and twisting pathways. However, tragedy struck when his wife and daughter were kidnapped, leaving behind only a mocking riddle signed with the pseudonym "Truly, Devious". This infamous cold case has gone unsolved for years. True-crime aficionado Stevie Bell is determined to solve it. She begins her first year at Ellingham Academy, where she must navigate demanding new school life and housemates. But as she delves deeper into the mystery, death revisits the academy, and the past comes back to haunt her. The case of Truly Devious is expertly woven with a new mystery that will keep you guessing until the very end. Stevie Bell's relentless quest for justice will continue in future books in this series, which combines two interwoven mysteries into a thrilling pacey read.
