A funny murder mystery adventure for readers aged 8+
Young readers will be gripped by Murder for Two by Niyla Farook, plus they'll have fun with the accompanying activity pack, which we created for Parrot Street Book Club subscribers in February 2025.
“When Murder for Two, and its stars, the Tariq Twins, landed on our desks, we immediately knew they were a great fit for our Cockatoo subscribers. A pair of funny, brave, hugely relatable young wannabe detectives with their own complicated family dynamic, Ani and Riri set out to solve a murder in this fun and moving mystery adventure, perfect for fans of Robin Stevens and Sharna Jackson. We love the evolving relationship between the two sisters, the witty dialogue and intriguing storyline.”

Separated when they were 6 months old, twins Ani and Riri couldn't be more different. Loud and adventurous Ani wants to be a sleuth when she grows up. Shy and quiet Riri prefers books to people, and just wants a safe, germ free job when she grows up.
When they're forced to spend the summer together, Ani is convinced it's going to be another Great Twin War like the last time they tried family bonding. But this summer is different - there's a murder, and their dad is arrested as the prime suspect. Can they work together to protect their family and solve the mystery?
Niyla Farook is a writer from West Yorkshire, where she still lives. When she's not writing, she's either working in a pharmacy (just like Agatha Christie!) or winning every murder mystery game she can (which isn't a lot!). As a woman of colour, Niyla is passionate about portraying authentic diversity in her books.
The activity pack includes book club-style questions to ponder and a recipe for jeera (cumin) biscuits. You'll complete your own detective agency profile, solve our Greek proverbs word puzzle and make your own invisible ink, alongside jokes, facts and further reading recommendations.
Activity packs are a handy A5 size and printed on uncoated paper which is fully recyclable.
