About The Shell Secret

The Shell Secret (Candy Jar Books) 11-yr-old Alice Clark only has a week left in Cornwall in which to create a memorial to her sister. The only problem is, she needs to spend time on the beach and she’s not allowed there alone. Forced to make a deal with the annoying boy next door, she ends up in the middle of a World War II murder mystery, discovers a shocking family secret and exposes a present-day crime.
