Truly Tan

Meet Tan. She's funny. She's lively. She has the mind of a Great Detective.... Dear Diary, it's official. Our whole family has moved to the country. The pets are disturbed and restless. My sisters are disturbed and restless - although that's normal. What is not normal is a cursed fox and a haunted clubhouse. That is definitely unnormal. At least the country people now have an expert in their midst. Someone with a cool head and a sharp eye. Someone who can solve intriguing mysteries.

The new audiobook in the funniest series since Clarice Bean! Tan's back. She's bolder. She's brighter. But is she...jinxed? Dear Diary, I am writing to you with the aid of my Mail Order Moose Pen - you know, the one that had edible antlers.... Dad put an old tram in our back paddock. It has 'Follow Me Through the Shadow' painted on it. Obviously that tram is full of secrets. I bet it is even haunted. The problem is I can't get inside. I am banned. Just as well I am a Secret Spy. Just as well I am cunning and...stealthy.

Tan is back in another deliciously spooky adventure! Tan and the Chosen Few have another mystery on their hands...the 'stonies' (stone animal statues) around Peppercorn Valley have been mysteriously disappearing. But who would steal them? What could the thief want with a stone emu or flamingo? This mystery is truly baffling! It's a good thing Tan has the mind of a Great Detective....

Tan Callahan, Great Detective, is back in the exciting Truly Tan series! Tan has never been fond of the old machinery shed. It's dusty and airless, full of dark secrets and bad memories. There's a mountain of junk in there, too: broken chairs, sideboards, couches, books and overcoats. But worse still is the creepy portrait of an unnamed little girl. She has cold, dark eyes and a gloomy face. And if the girl isn't scary enough, the china doll she's holding looks downright malicious.

Verity Crisp's cousin has come to Peppercorn Valley. Her name is Ophelia Crisp, she is nearly ten and she has messy hair. She is also sullen, secretive and shrouded in mystery. Before long Tan has reasons to suspect that Ophelia is a thief. But a Secret Spy should never jump to conclusions, so Tan sets out to build Ophelia's profile - and discover once and for all if she is a criminal. Tan's investigations lead her deeper into the secret life of Ophelia Crisp, and when Ophelia disappears, it is up to Tan to piece the clues together and find her before it is too late.

It's time for a stakeout at Topple cottage in the sixth instalment of the best-selling and very popular Truly Tan series. "Dear Diary, I am writing to you with the aid of my Magical Mystical Gazing Owl pen. You know, the one whose eyes fell out. Our neighbour Mrs Topple has gone on a cruise. I have to weed the garden and water the plants at her cottage. But mostly I’m in charge of security. A strange car has been coming and going. A shadowy figure has been spotted snooping around on the veranda. Something big is about to happen at this cottage. Just you mark my words. Truly Tan." 

Dear Diary, I am writing to you with the aid of my Plastic Cactus novelty pen. You know, the one that is cute and stylish and hard to hold. It is winter in Peppercorn Valley and we had a bonfire. At school. At night. We also had a lantern walk - and I spied on Journey’s End. Journey’s End is the creepiest house in Peppercorn Valley. The old ladies who live there have painted weird symbols all over the outside walls. Why? What could those symbols mean? Are the old ladies in danger? I have a hunch they are and my hunches always lead to adventure. Truly Tan.

Tan investigates the weird, strange and highly suspicious actions of the Grade Four teacher in the next adventure from the best-selling Truly Tan series. Tan is cool, courageous and clever. But she's in for a shock!
