Books Included in This Collection:
Violet and the Pearl of the Orient
In Violet and the Pearl of the Orient, Violet suspects something odd about the new neighbours after a precious jewel disappears. Her keen eye for detail and stubborn curiosity drive the investigation as she follows small clues, pieces together motives, and navigates a new neighbourhood with confidence. The mystery unfolds through clever conversations, misdirection, and thoughtful deduction, delivering a satisfying resolution that honours Violet’s growing investigative instincts.

Violet and the Hidden Treasure
During holidays in India with Godmother Celeste, Violet explores vibrant landscapes and meets the Maharajah’s cockatoo. On returning home, the Maharajah’s butler asks Violet to look after the bird, and the creature becomes central to a mystery about the Maharajah’s fortune. A determined Violet must outsmart a would-be thief bent on bird-napping, using patience, observation, and a few well-timed deductions to uncover who is really behind the danger.

Violet and the Smugglers
Uncle Johnny invites Violet and friends to a summer sailing trip around Europe. The voyage sparkles with anticipation until Violet suspects the ship’s captain may be involved in a smuggling ring. By gathering subtle clues, testing alibis, and staying one step ahead, she uncovers whether the captain is the mastermind—or if another crew member is pulling the strings—delivering suspense with fairness and a clever wrap-up.

Violet and the Mummy Mystery
Violet’s Cairo visit becomes a doorway to adventure when her cousin Agnes and Aunt Mathilde arrive. Aunt Mathilde, a Professor of Ancient Egyptology, has discovered a mummy that may unlock the location of Queen Nefertiti’s tomb. Violet helps interpret clues from historical artefacts and hieroglyphs, learning about Egyptian history while navigating rival interests. The blend of archaeology, mystery, and friendship makes this tale both educational and entertaining for curious minds.

Violet and the Mystery of Tiger Island
A tropical island wedding seems like a dream until old enemies surface at the hotel and a valuable figurine goes missing. Violet must race against time—amid a hungry tiger and bustling preparations—to uncover the truth and ensure the big day goes to plan. The chase is fast, the clues are clever, and Violet’s teamwork and courage shine as the finale approaches.
