Recommended to me by one of my students, the first book in the ‘Scarlet and Ivy’ series - The Lost Twin - is a brilliant mystery full of twists and turns. Even I, as an adult, didn't see some of the twists coming! The characters are loveable, the plot is engaging and the setting is spooky and atmospheric! I’d definitely recommend this to children who enjoyed reading ‘A Series of Unfortunate Events’ and ‘Murder Most Unladylike.
