Some people think that museums are boring places full of glass cases,
dust and stuff no one cares about: wrong! In a hidden headquarters below
the exhibits there's a gang ready to handle dangerous, spooky or just
plain weird problems: the Museum Mystery Squad.
Techie-genius Nabster, mile-a-minute Kennedy and sharp-eyed Laurie
(along with Colin the hamster!) tackle the surprising conundrums
happening at the museum. From pre-historic creatures that move and
secret Egyptian codes to missing treasure and strange messages from the
past, there's no brain-twisting, totally improbable puzzle the Squad
can't solve.
Strange lights, eerie sounds -- something spooky is happening at the
museum. The ghostly goings-on center on a dented Roman helmet. Could it
be haunted? The Squad aren't convinced but what better place is there
for a ghost to hide than in a museum full of seriously old and rather
dead things?
In the Case of the Roman Riddle, the Squad investigate ancient
treasure, mystery mosaics and suspicious centurions to try to solve
their latest mystery.
Young readers will love the riddles, red herrings and big reveals
jam-packed into this fun-filled series of mystery stories by Mike
Nicholson. The enjoyable extras like wacky facts and activities, as well
as zany illustrations by Mike Phillips, will keep amateur detectives
entertained for hours.
