Murder at the Ivy Hotel

A charming, classic-feeling cosy-crime children's debut from bestselling Irish author Emily Hourican - perfect for fans of Murder Most Unladylike, The Swifts and Janice Hallett's A Box Full of Murders. 12-year-old Meredith and 10-year-old Macy live at the Ivy Hotel in Dublin - an old, beautiful and beloved institution with a tight-knit staff that feel like family. Their mum is the General Manager, and their modest apartment is tucked away in a corner, but it has lots of perks. The girls enjoy sneaky snacks from the restaurant, spying on glamorous events and getting to know the eccentric long-term residents. And they like knowing all the secret stairs and corridors that guests never see, where the staff move around invisibly, making sure everything runs like clockwork... And this is going to come in handy. Because within the cosy walls of the Ivy Hotel, there is also danger, intrigue and threat. Just as the hotel's new owners arrive, ready to make cuts and fire staff, the girls are faced with their biggest task yet: a murder to solve.
