Publisher's Summary

When a tourist girl disappears on a vacation island - and the police investigation goes nowhere - 11-year-old local boy Billy Wheatley steps in to help.

He’s a little young to play detective, and he can’t tell anyone what he’s up to. But he's kind of a child prodigy, or at least, he thinks he is. Either way, he’s got a very good reason to want the police off his beach.

His style of investigation is unlike anything you’ve ever heard of before, but he gets results. Until the trail of clues leads uncomfortably close to home. Here, Billy begins to sense just how much danger he’s really in. And how the life he thought he was living hides a much darker truth. Because, the person who took the girl isn’t just someone he knows - it’s the only person he thought he could trust.

If Billy has any chance of bringing his adversary to justice - or even staying alive - he’s going to need every ounce of his unique ingenuity.

But how do you catch a killer when you're just a kid?

The Things You Find in Rockpools is the first in the USA and UK Amazon best-selling series with over 100,000 copies sold and thousands of international five-star reviews. Perfect for fans of L.J. Ross, Adam Croft, KL Slater, and anyone who loves a gripping and utterly engrossing crime thriller.

good story. too much cursing

I enjoyed the story a lot. It was longish, a bit very long, but interesting. Great idea for a story. Exciting toward the end, kept me on the edge of my seat. Would have been 4 stars if there had been no blasphemy. That spoils much for me. Not neccessary at all.

Love this new voice

Loved this book, and Billy. Maybe it's the pandemic but I find it hard to stick with anything unless the characters draw me in immediately. 'The Things You Find in Rockpools' is reminiscent of 'The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time' but with a lighter touch. I was totally immersed in this coastal world and Billy's projects. If I had to make any criticism, it's that the plot seemed to wander a bit and the denouement was a tad melodramatic; it didn't fit with the rest of the book.
