About this listen

Many people go their whole lives without noticing anything that is afoot, amiss, or even untoward; without ever experiencing that toe-tingling, stomach-twisting sensation that a mystery is about to unfold.

Not Bonnie Montgomery—the world's best detective. Not that anyone (other than Grampa Banks) has heard of her… But they might have heard of the great Montgomery Bonbon, the well-dressed gentleman detective who (apart from the hat and moustache) looks suspiciously like a 10-year-old girl.

Their newest case: solving the mystery surrounding a highly suspicious death at the Hornville Museum. Together they'll interview some dodgy witnesses, scour the scene for clues and—above all—hope no one notices that Bonnie and Montgomery are never in the same room at the same time...

“Enormous fun—Montgomery Bonbon is my new favourite detective!”—Katherine Woodfine

“A terrific twisty, turny tale… perfect for readers who love mystery, mayhem and fake moustaches.”—Shane Hegarty

Extremely witty, extremely silly and delightfully British. My inner 10 year old loved the pace, jokes and main character Bonnie. My adult self loved the nods to Agatha Christie, ABK’s narration and… the jokes again. They’re good jokes. I recommend to mystery fans young and old.

The world of ABK never fails to disappoint

Funny throughout, endearing characters, and literally oodles of wordplay. We (aged 39, 41, 9, and 12), had a grand old time listening in our car which accelerated otherwise yawnsome journeys.

A hoot

I’ve no memory of how this got into my library but it was clearly downloaded for my daughter to read. I fancied something light at 4am recently, found this in my library and suck in on my AirPods, and was surprised and impressed!
Really enjoyed it myself, lovely little adventure, humorous and clever.

I suppose I enjoyed it particularly knowing that was for children, imagining my daughter reading it and thinking how much she’d get from it. Kept me going over a few days and I looked forward to listening to more.

I must also say at one point I found myself put off the story by thinking about how good the narrator was- read the different characters, accents and humour so well.

Tres Bien!

Enjoyable and great fun, even for adults.

Loved every second of this book. Alisdair Beckett-King is so talented and Bonbon’s voice is how I imagined it when I read it.

Perfect Book!!!
