Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Minerva Clark has never liked popular, bratty Chelsea de Guzman. But when Chelsea pleads with  Minerva to help her locate a missing diamond, the prospect of a new mystery is just too irresistible to pass up, especially after Minerva learns that it's a red diamond and potentially worth millions. Before long Minerva is doing what she does best: getting into trouble while getting to the bottom of things. And whether that includes digging through a day's worth of trash, tangling with some crooked animal shelter workers, dodging three mischievous corgis, or tracking a carrier pigeon with intestinal problems, Minerva is determined to get her man — or his best friend...

Review:

"[T]his fairly typical teenager will take her place next to Nancy Drew as a prime crime case-cracker." Kirkus Reviews

Synopsis:

Minerva Clark — freak teen detective — takes on jewelry smugglers in her secondcase.
