-The second of two spinoff stories from the Alianna Winter Mysteries-
It's two weeks after the fall, and Scotland Yard is in turmoil, trying to round up the remnants of Stephenson's gang while the old man himself sits quietly in custody, determinedly not being helpful. But Detective Inspector Toby Smart is on a different mission. A mission to find out the truth, because something-he doesn't know what-doesn't quite add up. He's prepared to do whatever it takes to reveal what really happened, whatever the cost.

What Makes A Detective.
-The first of two spinoff stories from the Alianna Winter Mysteries- Tobias (Toby!) Smart isn't exactly your average fourteen-year-old. To be honest, his seventeen-year-old brother Tarquin Smart, or Quinne as he prefers to be called, isn't exactly average either. Both boys, as well as an unfortunate inbred skill for baking, have more brains and a sharper wit (and in Tarquin's case, a sharper tongue) than most adults they've ever met (other than perhaps their mother). But when a young child from the village is found dead, having been smashed on the head with a mirror, Toby and Tarquin finally get to start putting their skills to good use.Complete
