I am reviewing a copy of Drew Leclair Gets a Clue through Clarion Books and Netgalley:

Drew Leclair understands what you need to be a good detective. She’s pored over the cases solved by her hero, criminal profiler Lita Miyamoto. She tracked down the graffiti artist at school, and even solved the mystery of her neighbor’s missing rabbit. But when her mother runs off to Hawaii with the school guidance counselor, Drew is shocked. How did she miss all of the clues?

Drew does her best to keep her family life a secret, even from her best friend. But when a cyber bully attacks others at the school its only a short time before Drew’s secret is out.

With notebooks full of observations about her classmates, Drew knows what she has to do: profile all of the bullies in her grade to find the culprit. But being a detective is more complicated when the suspects can be your friends. Will Drew crack the case if it means losing the people she cares about most?

Drew Leclair gets a clue is a modern day take on Harriet the Spy and I give Drew Leclair gets a clue four out of five stars!

Happy Reading!
