About the book
When a hurricane uncovers new information in a cold case, the Sherlock Society investigates a decades-old heist in this second book in the action-packed and funny New York Times bestselling Sherlock Society middle grade series from Edgar Award–winning author James Ponti!
When a category three hurricane strikes Miami Beach, it reveals a body buried at the prestigious Moroccan Hotel. The body is confirmed to be that of the former bell captain of the hotel, who disappeared sixty years ago and was suspected of committing a million-dollar jewel heist before his disappearance.
As it becomes clear that the bell captain did not run away with the stolen jewels, as previously thought, the Sherlock Society turns their attention to finding the true culprit behind the theft. However, with the possibility that the thief is also responsible for the bell captain's murder, even after six decades, there are those who are determined to keep the truth hidden.
