Books Included in This Collection:
Violet and the Smugglers
Violet and the Smugglers drops Violet and friends into a sailing summer around Europe, where clues surface amid the ship’s bustle and hidden cargo. Violet’s knack for spotting tiny inconsistencies, reading people, and connecting disparate hints turns a relaxed voyage into a lively puzzle. The nautical setting, colorful characters, and light-hearted family humour create a charming, confidence-building first adventure in Violet’s sleuthing career. It’s a brisk, approachable entry that proves thinking through a mystery can be as exciting as the journey itself.
Violet and the Hidden Treasure
On holidays spent exploring India with Godmother Celeste, Violet encounters a mysterious trail tied to a Maharajah and a cockatoo.

The pacing balances wonder with deduction, offering readers an engaging blend of travel, puzzle-solving, and character warmth. This volume broadens Violet’s world while reinforcing the power of careful observation and thoughtful inquiry in solving even the most elusive clues.
Violet and the Mummy Mystery
When Violet’s cousin Agnes and Aunt Mathilde arrive from Cairo with a mummy that may unlock the secret of Queen Nefertiti’s tomb, Violet steps up again to piece together history with modern-day sleuthing. The setting’s atmosphere—Egyptian antiquities, museum spaces, and a family science connection—adds a scholarly flavor to the adventure. Violet’s respectful curiosity about Egyptology, combined with brisk puzzle-solving and heartwarming teamwork, makes this a satisfying, education-rich mystery that sparks imagination without ever feeling heavy.
Violet and the Pearl of the Orient
In the port city nicknamed the Pearl of the Orient, Violet spots something off about a new neighbour and embarks on a street-smart investigation full of markets, quirks, and clever misdirections.
