Thirteen-year-old detective Skylar Robbins moves into the multi-level mansion with her family and immediately takes the case. The heiress's body was never recovered. A sinister stalker mentioned in her diary may have been a close relative. Or was a perfect stranger to blame?
Pacific Middle School bullies label Skylar's detective agency a joke. Skylar and her assistant detective Alexa must decode the secret message in time to crack a new case and save their reputations at Pacific. They team up with Daniel Gannon-the most brilliant boy in middle school-to solve the mystery of the heiress's disappearance.
Decoding the message opens the door to a world of danger. Now Xandra's stalker is after Skylar! The team uses their detective tools and sleuthing skills to piece together a complicated puzzle. Inside the mansion, a trap door leads to a secret passageway. Skylar's ultraviolet light illuminates a shocking mural, painted on the wall inside a hidden floor. Poems in Xandra's diary contain clues that lead to a mysterious key. Skylar and Daniel must brave life-threatening waves and menacing enemies to locate the lock. Can they determine how the heiress went missing...before Skylar suffers the same fate?
