The Lady Grace Mysteries by Grac Cavendish
There's a new arrival - a mysterious and exotic young princess - at court and Lady Grace can't believe how many rumours there are about her already. The exiled Banoo Yasmine from Sharakand is a beautiful girl with a pet panther and - everyone believes - magical powers. Yasmine also possesses the renowned Heart of Kings Ruby - a huge stone that she wears around her neck to balls and feasts, that legend says has the power to make kings. When the famed jewel goes missing, the finger is pointed at Grace's dear friend Ellie the laundrymaid. Grace must prove her friend's innocence, find the true thief and restore the stone to its rightful owner.
" 'The reader is quickly drawn into the intrigue and chilling atmosphere of court life' - Primary Times 'A gripping historical thriller' - Sunday Times 'Filled with humour, charm and fun, they're an absolute must for all you amateur sleuths out!' - Poppi 'The personal narrative, written with great attention to the details of Court life, is a fascinating and exciting read' - Sunday Tribune 'This book is absolutely superb and I really enjoyed the way it hooks you on all the murders. I liked all the chapters because they always leave you at a cliff-hanger which made me want to read on all the time!' - Maria, 10"
