People will die for a good mince pie…
Every year, six local schools compete to win the Christmas Cup.
Last year, the rival school to Brooke Parkin's school won for the most crackers pulled in a minute! This year, the cup will be judged and awarded to the school with the perfect mince pie. But when a series of murders seemed to be linked to the very mince pies (each with a clue from a letter from the alphabet imprinted in the pastry) the five neuro-divergent children must turn detective and combine their skill sets to find the killer.
Can they prevent another death and save their out-of-school club from being shut down forever . . .?
