Queen of Mysteries Riley Dare has her first real-life case to solve!

Riley Dare is a master of solving puzzles. After all, she helps run

her aunt's beloved escape room, Level Up, and makes it extra special

thanks to the flicker of magic she's gifted with. Need some extra

shadows? Some spooky lighting? She's got it covered.

But when a celebrated author of children's mysteries vanishes during the latest, greatest escape room she's designed with her aunt,

one themed after the biggest unsolved heist in her small town's history,

things get complicated fast.

Not only is the author missing-and oh, maybe there's a ghost inside the escape room-but with reservations being canceled left and

right alongside the police investigation, there's a chance Level Up

might not survive. Riley will have to team up with her closest friends

to figure out what's going on, and how all this might be tied to that

same unsolved heist from twelve years ago. A heist that happened on the

day she was born...

It's her greatest puzzle yet, and Riley Dare is on the case.

Reviews for Riley Dare: Slightly Witchy Sleuth

“A locked room mystery that’s also an escape room mystery? Mr. Lemoncello would approve!”—Chris Grabenstein, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Escape from Mr. Lemoncello’s Library “Delightfully spooky, slightly magical, and full of heart, Riley Dare: Slightly Witchy Sleuth is a jewel of a book. And Riley herself may just be my new favorite detective.”—Marieke Nijkamp, #1 New York Times bestselling author of This Is Where It Ends and Splinter & Ash “Riley Dare: Slightly Witchy Sleuth was so much fun, full of heart and mystery, and more twists and turns than a roller coaster. I loved following Riley and her friends Mateo and Kayla (plus that other friend I won’t name because SPOILERS!) on this adventure, and I can’t wait for the next installment!”—Katherine Locke, author of This Rebel Heart and co-editor of This Is Our Rainbow
