Children’s book blogger Julia Thum has reviewed Abie Longstaff‘s The Trapdoor Mysteries: A Sticky Situation. She has also picked it as her ‘Book of the Month.’

“This enchanting story [. . .] includes everything you could possibly ask for in a children’s book. There’s a crime to solve, a lonely heroine, a loyal companion pet, code breaking, puzzles, magic, humour – even a trapdoor and the plot gets better and better as you get further into the story so that you just can’t put it down,” writes Thum.

A Sticky Situation is the first book in The Trapdoor Mysteries series, with three sequels to follow.
