The Parker Inheritance by Varian Johnson
“I love a good ‘grown up’ mystery…but how good could a mystery for children really be? The answer is, better than a lot of ‘grown up’ ones! Candice, with the help of her new friend Brandon, has to unravel a trail linked to her family, racial prejudice and ultimately to a life changing discovery. Thoroughly recommended for UKS2 (and adults!) with many opportunities for discussion of the struggles around race and sexuality but also because of a good, old fashioned page turner! star 5 stars from me.”
