The Case of the Missing Treasure by Robin Stevens

4.0

This is actually only a short story. I'm pretty sure that I also have the collection with this story in it, but at the time I didn't realize I didn't have to get those mini-books to read those stories. However, the fun part is that I can at least read these ones in the right order and where they are meant to be read. In this case in between book 6 and book 7.

What I liked about this mini-mystery is that Daisy is the one to tell it. Mostly Hazel is the one writing all their adventures down and this gave us a chance to have another peek into Daisy's way of thinking. It was exactly as I had expected it to be. Daisy put herself on a pedestal and she's terrified Hazel is ever gonna knock her off it. But she loves the girl. I don't doubt that.

The case was of course not that complicated. There were no crazy plot twists or last minute reveals changing everything, but I liked the touch of culture and the mix up with the actual treasure hunt Daisy's uncle made for them. I also enjoyed seeing Alexander and George back! Although I'm quite happy that Stevens keeps the romantic undertones in the background.

And now I'm ready to dive into their next adventure! We're going to the theatre! And I know that I'll be going with them very very soon!
