Review Praise for The Undetectables"a compulsively readable race against the clock to stop a supernatural killer - downright delightful and unapologetically queer."Polygon.com"Unputdownable. Grim and caring, twisted and witty, The Undetectables is gripping and charming in equal measure. You wont want to leave Wrackton, while also being really glad you dont live there." - Deirdre Sullivan, author of Savage Her Reply"If youre looking for a mystery that makes you think, mixed with a healthy dose of supernatural, diverse representation and some of the best dialogue Ive seen in a long time then [...] The Undetectables is the book for you." Geeking By"I got so invested in these characters and by the last page I simply did not want to leave them behind. Ill take a hundred more cases that need to be solved by the Wrackton gang, even if I need to commit them myself." Read By Ross"It feels like if Halloweentown, Charmed and A Good Girls Guide to Murder had a baby as a group of 20 year olds reunite to find [a] magical serial killer [who] starts targeting their small town." Ace Reader"An urban fantasy that feels light but has a lot of heart, with a fantabulous cast and oddly adorable glowing beetles, The Undetectables is my new favourite friendship-fantasy. I strongly advise you not to miss out on it!" Every Book a Doorway"This book was addictive and I found myself unable to put it down! It was impossible for me not to love this group of friends who each bring their own to The Undetectables. Not only do we get a lot of representation in this book but each character is unique and incredibly realistic and relatable." Once More With Reading"An entertaining, light-hearted mystery novel with an engaging group of characters and a solid sense of worldbuilding ... this could be the auspicious start of a new fan-favourite series."Set The Tape"Unapologetically queer and diverse with the perfect vibes for spooky season!"
