Synopsis:
Despite their differences, Daphne and Velma were able to solve the mystery of The Vanishing Girl. But there are a lot of secrets buried in the town of Crystal Cove. And the biggest case of all still remains unsolved… why did the town’s original settlers all disappear? What happened to them?
Velma is determined to find out… especially because her family’s ancestors were among the disappeared. And now that she and Daphne have started to get a reputation for solving mysteries, everyone in town is looking to them for answers.
But digging up the past can be dangerous… especially when some people in town have profited from the mystery for so long. Can these two intrepid teen detectives crack the case… and escape with their lives
Review:
The Dark Deception is the second book in the serious and I dare say that it was better than the first? I mean both were book but honestly this one is just as amazing!
Daphne and Velma have a new mystery on their hands. Jewels have washed up on the shore of Crystal Cove and no one is putting up their hands to find the lost jewels. Whilst Crystal Cove is known for unsolved mysteries, this was one that Daphne and Velma can’t let slide and have to solve.
I love how their friendship has strengthened since their first book and I am all for the character development which added great value to the plot. Reading these books of my favourite childhood leading ladies, is just amazing. I can’t wait to see what other mystery they face next!
