Young reporter-in-training Kate and her mouse-accomplice Rupert are on board a train to visit Kate's mum in the Arctic.

But as soon as the train departs, mysterious things start happening.

A packet of ginger nuts goes missing . . .

A collection of gymnastics trophies are stolen . . .

And some ancient scrolls disappear . . .

Fellow passenger Madame Maude seems the most likely culprit, until a surprising - and delicious - twist turns the whole investigation on its head! Hannah Peck is an author and illustrator based in East London, UK. She studied English at university before swapping the pen for a pencil. Now she uses both to write and draw at exactly the same time. Hannah uses inks and pencil textures to create elegant illustrations full of magic and fun, and thinks sharing stories is important. Mystery on the Arctic Express! Join Kate for adventure, mystery and . . . biscuits! Filled with illustrations - perfect for new readers. First in a two-colour series written and illustrated by Hannah Peck. Lively characters, an Agatha Christie style setting, delicious food and a surprising twist. For fans of HOTEL FLAMINGO, OTTOLINE, CLAUDE, VIOLET AND THE PEARL OF THE ORIENT, CAPTAIN PUG.
