Product Information

I was able to get in touch with the author of Scarlet and Ivy, Sophie Cleverly, to ask her some questions about the series and her plans for the future. Can Ivy solve the mystery before Miss Fox suspects? Or before an even greater danger presents itself? SC: I really love the twins’ best friend Ariadne. She is so enjoyable to write as she’s very clever and funny, whilst at the same time being terribly “uncool.” I wanted to write someone that the twins might write off as annoying or weird, only to discover that once you get to know her she is fantastic—brave and fun and a wonderfully loyal friend. I would love to have a friend like her and I would strive to be the same way myself! First, she tipped the cold, sloppy leftovers from her plate into my lap. I heard her say 'whoops!', as if she'd forgotten how her own hands worked.

Newly veiled threats, a cryptic letter and secrets to uncover - Rookwood is in real danger this time... Nasty notes. Frightening dreams. Rumours running wild. The girls of Rookwood School are in danger once more... Rebecca Angel, Judy Berna, Nivi Engineer, Evil Genius Mum, Marziah Karch, M.J. Kaufmann, Elizabeth MacAndrew, Melanie Meadors, Kali Moulton, Sarah Pinault, Cathé Post, Ruth Suehle, Lisa Tate, Karen Walsh, and Amy Weir Occasional Contributors Different covers were made for the UK releases due to people mistaking Scarlet and Ivy as a fantasy series rather than a mystery one. [2]But rumours swirl like ghosts around Ebony, and not all of them are nice. And when a prank on All Hallow's Eve goes horribly wrong, it's Ebony who gets the blame. Ivy and Scarlet aren't so sure. There might be more to Ebony than meets the eye, but surely she's not dangerous? But if it's not Ebony, then who or what is to blame? Ivy must uncover the secrets behind her twin sister Scarlet’s disappearance before it’s too late. When troublesome Scarlet mysteriously disappears from Rookwood School, terrifying Miss Fox invites her quiet twin sister Ivy to ‘take her place’. Ivy reluctantly agrees in the hopes of finding out what happened to her missing sister.

I wanted to come as the scariest thing I could imagine, but I didn't think turning up dressed as my mother would go down too well. So a ghost it was. - Miss Finch”There's a new girl at Rookwood School, and she's as enchanting as she is mysterious. But is Ebony really who she seems? GM: Were there any other characters you especially enjoyed writing? If so, what was it about them that inspired you? This is the story of how I became my sister… A spine-tingling mystery set in a creepily atmospheric boarding school.

Scarlet and Ivy is a middle-grade series of six books, the latest one (and last in the series) was released in January 2019. The books follow the adventures of Scarlet and Ivy Grey, thirteen-year-old twins who attend Rookwood School, an English boarding school in the 1930s. Throughout the books, we get to know the girls and their family, along with their friends, and the teachers at the school as they solve a series of mysteries. Other than book one, The Lost Twin, the books are told in chapters that alternate between the perspectives of the two girls. SC: Mostly my terrible jokes… I often have silly jokes that my editors don’t get and tell me to take out. (Sometimes I don’t listen!) But at least I keep myself amused when writing.Without a word, I walked over to the door and opened it. And when the policeman stepped in, the look on Mr Bartholomew’s face was priceless.”

SC: After having a bit of a break due to the birth of my daughter, I am working on a new series which is due to start next year. It’s all a bit of a secret at the moment, but I hope it will appeal to my fans. With evil headmaster, Mr Bartholomew, safely out of the picture, life is looking up for Scarlet and Ivy. A creepy boarding school at midnight. A secret diary. A terrifying teacher. A spine-tingling mystery must be solved. Scarlet, Ivy, and their friends get to go on a week-long residential trip to a countryside hotel by the edge of a reservoir, but Rookwood’s mysteries are determined to follow them. The legends surrounding the town drowned beneath the reservoir seem to be coming true, and is there more to one of their friends than she is letting on?Penny screamed and clutched at her cheek. The whole hall went silent. I shook out my stinging hand.
