'• WHO KILLED SIR GEORGE? Our amateur detectives come full circle when the mining magnate who united them is found murdered, his trusty assistant arrested - and with good reason. All the evidence points Verity Vine's way, and at least one sleuth thinks she's guilty.

'Yet there are so many delicious suspects to choose from, especially when another prime suspect shows up murdered.

'• WHAT REALLY HAPPENED TO KILA'S SISTER? While the sleuths explore two fresh crimes, renegade gumshoe Kila is busy with a cold case of his own. He's just learned the monster who killed his sister, Chili, on a Tinder date may be innocent, and the culprit could still be out there.

'What's worse, Kila's just found a connection to two seemingly unrelated deaths...' (Publication summary)

'OUR "SUPER SLEUTHS" ARE BACK. This time they’ve got 3 days to find a woman missing at a luxury beachside suburb, where the coffee’s overpriced and the locals suspiciously friendly.

'THE IMPOSSIBLE MYSTERY: Young Chanel has vanished on her daily walk. The evidence points to a charming kayaker, but there’s something very strange about his story. Luckily for ‘Nel, “strange” is just what the amateur sleuths live for.

'THE SLEUTHS OF LAST RESORT: Cluedo champ Merry, fearless reporter Frankie, ex-copper Earle, mystery author Martin and renegade PI Kila should all be on cloud nine after their last case, but they're floundering and desperate for a distraction. When Sir George calls with another mind-bending mystery, they can’t get their trench coats on fast enough.

'AND SO THE ADVENTURE CONTINUES… Using their collective experience and expertise, the team quickly uncover falsehoods, fresh suspects, and an unexpected corpse. And all while trying to make sense of their own spiralling lives…'

'Police say the case is open-and-shut. The heir to a massive fortune, Heath Burlington, slaughters his parents, confesses to the crimes, then turns the gun on himself. Heath's grandfather says, "Not so fast." With the case now closed, Sir George assembles his own crack team of detectives—five amateur sleuths with a nose for mystery and a need to prove themselves—then pits them against each other to solve it.

'THE IMPOSSIBLE MYSTERY: "Prove Heath's innocence and you get $1 million each. The sleuth who makes the biggest breakthrough scores a bonus million. The sleuth who does the least gets nothing." They have just two weeks.'
