Detective: You is an interactive mystery series for ages 9-13. Readers become the detective-solving puzzles, cracking codes, and making choices that affect the story.
Every clue counts. Every choice changes the investigation.

There's swimming, fishing, birdwatching-and a steady stream of visitors who, from week to week, pass in and out of your life. Except for Loretta. A regular guest of Cabin 4, Loretta is an avid hiker and a stand-in grandmother to you. So when you find her cabin empty one morning, you know that something's wrong-even if no one else believes you.

Reviews / Votes
"My heart was racing as I tried to solve the mystery. It was fun to puzzle out the connections between the characters, and I enjoyed making my own decisions about what to do at important moments in the book. Should I read someone's journal or not? Do I choose danger or logic? How much should I risk? The setting and characters seemed serene, but under that calm facade, there was danger, intrigue, and controversy. I carefully gathered the hints and clues left by the author and had so much fun solving the crime. Good news: I only died a few times!"-Christy Gove, author of Maggie the One-Eyed Peregrine Falcon

-Natalie Fowler, paranormal investigator, historian, and author
