Overview
Dive into the twisty, addictive world of Stevie Bell with this complete six-book Truly Devious collection by New York Times bestselling author Maureen Johnson. From the riddle-filled halls of Ellingham Academy to a decades-old summer camp cold case and a new mystery in New York City, this set follows Stevie's growth from eager amateur sleuth to seasoned investigator. Packed with cold cases, clever wordplay, and genuinely funny teen banter, it's an essential bundle for any young mystery lover's bookshelf.
About the Books
This six-book collection gathers every chapter of Maureen Johnson's acclaimed Stevie Bell saga, beginning with the original Truly Devious trilogy. In Truly Devious, anxious but brilliant teen Stevie Bell arrives at Ellingham Academy, a Vermont boarding school founded by tycoon Albert Ellingham, hoping to crack an unsolved 1930s kidnapping and murder case. The Vanishing Stair and The Hand on the Wall deepen the mystery as new secrets emerge inside the academy's riddle-laden walls. Once the Ellingham case concludes, three standalone mysteries keep Stevie's skills sharp: The Box in the Woods sends her to a former summer camp to investigate a cold-case quadruple murder, Nine Liars takes her across the Atlantic to uncover a mystery rooted in 1990s England, and The Velvet Knife reunites Stevie and her friends in New York City for one more case. Together, these six books offer a complete journey through one of YA fiction's most beloved mystery series.
