Cecily Sawyer: How to Crack a Code

The second thrilling, mysterious and very, very funny Cecily Sawyer mystery, from the award-winning author of Einstein the Penguin.

Cecily Sawyer is surrounded by spies. They’re everywhere – on the streets, in her home, at her school – and after intercepting a highly suspicious message intended for her parents (also spies), Cecily, along with her highly-intelligent pet mouse, Mrs Maple Syrup, decides to investigate.

And the more that Cecily digs, the further the mystery deepens… forcing her to question who – if anyone – she can really trust.

Hugely gripping, incredibly funny, highly original, and brilliantly illustrated throughout by David Tazzyman, How to Crack a Code is an unputdownable mystery – perfect for fans of Robin Stevens and Katherine Woodfine.
