Melody Bird has discovered an old, abandoned building on the edge of town....

It's a dark, creepy place, but she can't resist its pull. When she goes to explore, she finds a boy hiding out there. Hal tells Melody that he is a spy-in-training, using the house as a base for his undercover surveillance of a nearby suspected criminal. He's very secretive about the details, but Melody trusts him and starts bringing him blankets and sneaking him food. She confides in her friends Matthew and Jake about Hal - they immediately question the likelihood of a 12-year-old spy and decide to turn the tables and spy on him, to work out what he's really up to....

This extraordinary companion to The Goldfish Boy is a mystery with a sensitive story about mental health at its core.

The Graveyard Riddle by Lisa Thompson and narrated by Rosie Jones takes us back to the little English neighborhood where Matthew, Melody, and Jake live and leaves off a year or so later from the first book, The Goldfish Boy. In this book though we follow Melody Bird as she has an adventure of her own while she also takes on some of her own dilemmas. This book brings the three friends back and they meet a new and strange boy named Hal who is living in the cemetery and claims to be a spy. Can Melody, Matthew, and Jake help Hal figure out the riddles in the cemetery before time runs out?

This book has some great spy fun and riddles that is great for rhe younger age groups. As her first book went, this book also has some great lessons and representation in it for the younger readers. This book of course has some mystery, riddles, and spy fun in it, but it also manages to bring up messages on how friendships and family isn't always easy or perfect, and it also deals with divorce and mental health issues as well in a way suitable for younger readers to understand or connect with. I love these kind of books that younger readers can read which represents all families in every aspect. I loved the story, characters, and messages behind this book!

Another great book by Lisa Thompson!
