Beatrice Mae Ross, Bee for short, has a summer holiday job working in the Taxidermy Department at the Museum of Natural History. Lots of stuffed animals!
One morning she arrives at work to find the Head Taxidermist has been found dead in the Red Rotunda. In his pocket were ten glass eyes. Was it suicide or murder?
In the tradition of those great girl detectives, Trixie Belden and Nancy Drew, Bee sets out to solve the mystery aided by goofy sidekick, Toby.
This book was an unexpected delight, I couldn't put it down!! I loved the mix of mystery, romance and humour and I've already chased up earlier novels by Lili Wilkinson to give them a go.
Highly recommended! Also it has a really great book trailer, check it out on You Tube!
