Mystery. Mayhem. Mini-cases with maximum twists.

Lila Martinez is back-and this time, summer in Willowbrook Cove is overflowing with secrets, sabotage, and sea spray. In this second volume of The Curious Cases of Lila Martinez, join teen sleuth Lila and her snack-loving best friend Jamal as they tackle 36 quick-read mysteries packed with clever clues, shady suspects, and unexpected laughs.

Perfect for curious readers ages 9 and up, each story is a standalone case that builds observational skills and deductive thinking. Whether it's solving The Case of the Vanishing Blow, unmasking a clam-digging cheater, or spotting fishy behavior at a beach cleanup, no mystery is too small-and no clue too slippery-for Lila.

Great for independent readers, classrooms, or anyone who loves short mysteries with bite.
