Rose Watson is a ten-year-old who gets into trouble for drawing a rude picture of her teacher, Mr. Cross. The headmistress warns her that if she doesn’t change her behavior, she will lose her position at the Silverton Young Artists’ Programme. Later, the school plans a tour to the museum, and Rose deviates from the group and discovers an odd painting that she discovers is not an original. While returning to school, Rose informs her friend that there is a strange man staring at them. Things become weirder when eavesdropping on an argument between Mr. Cross and the headmistress about a stolen painting. Rose is convinced it has something to do with her grandmother and wants to get to the bottom of it. In her investigations about why a strange man has been following the headmistress, she discovers some hidden information about her grandmother. How will things unfold in The Silverton Sleuths by Liam Moiser?

There was never a dull moment in The Silverton Sleuths by Liam Moiser, and once you start reading it, there is no putting it down. I was hooked from the first chapter to the last as the well-utilized suspense kept me on my toes, looking forward to the events of subsequent chapters. The thought-provoking work got me thinking about art and how much authenticity means when it comes to paintings and other art forms. The work also captures why we should be careful even when we deal with trusted colleagues, as we see in the betrayal between characters like Mrs. Seers and Mr. Batty. Liam ensured all events were vividly captured, and the readers will also appreciate the amazing narration, which added to the overall beauty of the work. I look forward to reading something else by Liam Moiser.
