The Case of the Peculiar Pink Fan

The historical backdrop adds so much flavor; I wonder if the author based it on real locations or created a fictional world. How did the setting influence the story's tone?

The clues were sprinkled just right, but I found myself second-guessing some of the characters' motives. Was this intentional to keep young readers engaged?

The protagonist was both clever and relatable, which made the story so engaging. I wonder what inspired the character’s traits and how they evolved during writing.
