2-in-1 edition of the first two stories in the BLUE PETER AWARD-winning mystery adventure series about11-year-old ace detective, Laura Marlin.

BLUE PETER AWARD-winning DEAD MAN'S COVE is the first in a new detective adventure series from the author of the much-loved White Giraffe series. Orphaned Laura is sent to live with her uncle in Cornwall, convinced that a life of adventure is hers at last - and everywhere she turns she's confronted with mysteries. Is Tariq, the shopkeeper's silent son, a friend or an enemy? Why does her uncle seem intent on erasing his own past? And why is everyone so afraid of Dead Man's Cove?

And in KIDNAP IN THE CARIBBEAN Laura Marlin has no idea that her dream holiday to the Caribbean might cost her and everyone she loves their lives, as they come face to face with pirates, a volcano and hungry sharks.

Lauren St John grew up surrounded by horses, dogs, cat, warthogs, and a giraffe on a farm and game reserve in Zimbabwe, the inspiration for her bestselling White Giraffe and One Dollar Horse series, and standalone novels, The Snow Angel and The Glory. Her latest books are Finding Wonder. Wave Riders and the Wolfe & Lamb Mystery series. Kat Wolfe Investigates won the 2019 CrimeFest Best Crime Novel for Children, and Dead Man's Cove, the first in her Laura Marlin Mystery series, was the 2011 Blue Peter Book of the Year. A passionate conservationist, Lauren is an Ambassador for the Born Free Foundation, a Patron of Mane Chance Animal Sanctuary, and the founder of Authors4Oceans. When not writing or saving leopards and dolphins, she is a full-time valet to her cats, Skye and Teddy.
