Reviews
If you’re looking for something like Only Murders in the Building, or Death in Paradise, for readers aged 11 to 13, then High Rise Mystery by Sharna Jackson would be a great place to start… High rise mystery is a solid murder mystery full of interesting and diverse characters, and just the right balance of pace and misdirection. The setting is a strong element, and the social issues associated with the council estate community and building, as well as how it’s regarded by the police and the media, make for an interesting undercurrent throughout the story.
