Eleanor Jones Can’t Keep a Secret





Eleanor Jones stirs up more mystery and danger in this fast-paced YA mystery.

Eleanor Jones is adjusting to her new normal: friends, school and volunteering at the local old age home.

Just as things feel calm, a series of events once again rock Eleanor’s world: Troy’s ex-girlfriend is back in Cooinda, there's a spate of farmhouse robberies, and Eleanor’s nursing home buddy Nance admits to witnessing a murder.

In an effort to definitely not be concerned about Troy’s ex, and not get involved in the robbery investigation, Eleanor throws herself into solving Nance's mystery. But Eleanor soon realises that digging into old secrets can be incredibly dangerous.
