If you’re a fan of the classic mysteries of the Hardy Boys or the daring escapades of Nancy Drew, then you’re going to love Leah Pugh’s novel, The Diamond Caper. This thrilling debut novel is the first in an exciting new series that promises to deliver suspense, adventure, and unforgettable characters.
Set in the quaint town of Alamo, Texas, The Diamond Caper introduces us to Crystal O’Mally, a feisty fifteen-year-old with dreams of becoming a top-notch detective. Nothing exciting ever happens in her sleepy hometown—until her father, the local jeweler, is accused of stealing the town’s treasure, a giant pink diamond. Determined to clear his name, Crystal dives headfirst into her first big case.
But solving mysteries isn’t as easy as it looks in the books she loves. Clues don’t add up, the suspect list keeps growing, and a shadowy figure always seems to stay one step ahead. To make matters even more complicated, Crystal has her hands full with her overeager eight-year-old sister Emma, a cute guy who insists on tagging along, and a best friend who’s suddenly keeping secrets of her own. As time runs out, Crystal finds herself in a race to uncover the truth before her father is unfairly punished for a crime he didn’t commit.
The Diamond Caper is a rollercoaster of twists, turns, and high stakes, wrapped in a compelling mystery that will keep readers guessing until the very last page. Leah Pugh has crafted a story filled with heart, humor, and the kind of small-town charm that will transport you right into Alamo, Texas.
This is the perfect read for young mystery lovers and anyone who enjoys a classic whodunit with a modern twist.
