Tom Sawyer, Detective

'Because in my nature I have always run to pie, whilst in his nature he has always run to mystery.'

The sequel to the extraordinary The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, Tom Sawyer, Detective is Twain's thrilling murder mystery, told from the perspective of one of his most beloved characters.

Tom Sawyer and Huck Finn – dearest friends and allies in mischief – reunite once again to travel down the Mississippi river, only this time they chart new territory by stumbling into a baffling murder case. Driven by a need to discover the truth, the curious and fearless Tom, with Huck by his side, navigates false accusations, hidden clues and even a diamond heist – often at the cost of the grown ups' authority. An effortless blend of suspense, humour and social satire, Twain creates a unique and lively murder mystery that captivates readers to this day, reminding us that sometimes the best detectives are the most unlikely ones.

Mark Twain (1835 – 1910), the pen name of Samuel Langhorne Clemens, was an American writer and essayist. Famed for his wit and satire, he quickly became a sought-after writer and speaker, and was labelled the 'greatest humorist the United States has produced' by the New York Times. Today, he is considered as the father of modern American literature.
