The Tangled Mysteries middle grade series that’s “as satisfying as hot soup on a cold day” (Kirkus Reviews, starred review, on Tangled Up in Luck) follows a pair of seventh grade sleuths on their fun-filled capers—the first three books now together in a collectible paperback boxed set.

Whether through serendipity (really, really good luck) or zemblanity (really, really bad luck), someone tricked Sloane Osburn and Amelia Miller-Poe’s teacher into using their seventh-grade class to investigate the mystery of their town’s long-missing treasure. From there, things have escalated. Quickly. Soon, the girls are stuck hiding behind a gravestone, dodging acorns (who knew acorns could be so threatening?), and just a few clues short of those jewels.

It’s up to these enemies-turned-partners to uncover centuries-old clues to find the treasure before the mysterious person on their trail can get to it first. And their sleuthing doesn’t stop there. Once their love of mystery solving is awakened, the girls get involved in another treasure hunt, this time at a mansion, and their first paid gig uncovering a time capsule at an amusement park.

This case-cracking paperback boxed set includes:
Tangled Up in Luck
Tangled Up in Nonsense
Tangled Up in Mayhem

Merrill Wyatt lives in Toledo, Ohio, with her husband, daughter, three cats, and a slightly surly guinea pig. She spent far too much of her childhood wandering around cemeteries and old Victorian homes. A middle school technology teacher, she is doll-phobic, donut-obsessed, and owns too many pairs of shoes.
