Solve Your Own Mystery: The Transylvanian Express

Solve Your Own Mystery: The Transylvanian Express {giveaway}

Posted on October 12, 2023 by jenny

Now that the weather has turned we are all looking forward to Halloween later this month. We went to the pumpkin patch at the weekend and our house is feeling very spooky and autumnal. I love to embrace this season and find Halloween themed food, sweet treats, decorations and even books!

Solve Your Own Mystery: The Transylvanian Express

All aboard the Transylvanian Express!

YOU and your yeti boss Klaus are headed to Castle Ursprung, home of the infamous vampire Count Fledermaus. But before you get there, you have a mystery to solve: Night Mayor Franklefink has vanished from the train.

Someone onboard must have played a role in his disappearance but who has the strongest motive? Could it be Franklefink’s archnemesis Bramwell Stoker? Or is Sandra Rigmarole, elf District Governor and colleague of the Night Mayor, a more likely suspect? Or perhaps Franklefink’s monster wife suddenly turn against him? YOU decide!

This is a fantastically imaginative detective story for readers looking for an interactive adventure. This is the fourth book in this fun Solve Your Own series.

Solve Your Own Mystery: The Transylvanian Express by Gareth P. Jones, illustrated by Louise Forshaw, is priced £6.99. It is perfect for 8-12 year old middle grade readers.
