It seems it’s a new case-  Anisha Accidental Detective: Show Stoppers.Year 6 are in an uproar when Mr Graft announces they’re off timetable for a week. It seems the school is one of four in Birmingham invited to create and perform a new play over a week. Not only is there a huge trophy to be won, but one performer wins a place in a summer drama academy. While Anisha’s interests are not with drama, she volunteers as assistant director role. However, Milo and Mindy and Beena are fired up and ready to show what they can do. What’s more, this might be Miss Jive’s moment to shine. It seems that she had a reputation as ‘jittery Jive‘ at her last school.

However as auditions, rehearsals and preparations progress, it seems there’s something dodgy about events. Could there be foul play?  Not only is there suspicious flooding, but then the stage curtains are cut, while the costumes disappear. However, will a footprint and a new knowledge of cats help our sleuth?

Bookwagon loves this series from Serena Patel. It seems that as in Agent Zaiba Investigates: The Missing Diamonds, Anisha’s cool headed, considered and thoroughly fair. What’s more this fairness extends to others who may not be as thoughtful as she is. Altogether, it makes this title, and the other books in the series, a really fulfilling, enjoyable read. Therefore, Bookwagon recommends Anisha Accidental Detective: Show Stoppers highly.
