Four high-stakes cases of deduction and deception await as Elizabeth starts 6th grade on a mystery-packed disaster course. Memories resurface, destinies intertwine, and a child develops a crippling milk addiction in this subversive sequel to Liz Hawk: School Detective!

This collection features 4 Liz Hawk stories: The Casting Call, The Backstage Robbery, The Boy in the White Scarf, and The Fatal Callback. With a focus on humor, characters, and keeping readers guessing, these mysteries twist, turn, and bubble with suspense - boiling into dire confrontations that put the spotlight on Liz to save the day,

The Casting Call: 6th grade's off to a turbulent start when Liz has a run-in with Becca's old friend Miriam, learning firsthand the perils of witchcraft. A pivotal mistake leads to hexes being cast, threats being made, and magical vengeance being reaped... leading to the highest stakes our protagonist has encountered yet. Only Elizabeth can halt the impending catastrophe - and it'll take more than just clever thinking to put the witch in her place.

The Backstage Robbery: Claritown Middle School cuts every corner possible on its lackluster career fair, leading to a brutal, behind-the-scenes brawl. When Elizabeth walks in on the chaos, she realizes it's up to her to give the... professionals... the answers they're looking for. The who-dunnit quickly becomes a how-catch-'em; the culprit here covered their tracks well. Can the fledgeling detective navigate the mayhem, and unveil the phony before time runs out?

The Boy in the White Scarf: A mysterious boy in a mysterious scarf goes on mysterious daily trips... mysteriously. Elizabeth's interest is piqued - especially once a familiar foe reappears and accuses the boy of supernatural mischief. Such an elusive opponent calls for a headstrong approach... but confronting a stranger can be difficult work - especially when you're confronting adolescence for the first time. Can Elizabeth get a grip and weather the storm?

The Fatal Callback: Opening a strange envelope sends our protagonist spiraling into her troubled past, where she must connect the dots with the present to piece together her most terrifying puzzle yet. Elizabeth musters every ounce of willpower and brainpower she has in this feature-length finale, scraping the depths of her mind as she battles the greatest danger she's ever faced. The floor is hers... and the stage is murky with menace.
