From million-copy bestselling author David Walliams comes his first ever murder mystery – with thrills, spills and laughs galore.
Dilly loves a good murder. Not a REAL murder. A made-up murder. One you would find in a murder-mystery novel.
Sherlock Holmes is her favourite detective. She even named her dog Watson after his faithful companion, and trained him to sniff out clues and follow trails.
So far, Dilly and Watson haven’t cracked many cases – beyond lost cats, or missing biscuits that turned out to have been eaten all along.
But now the detective duo find themselves on a luxury ocean liner bound for London. A thousand passengers. A thousand miles of ocean around them. It's the perfect place for a murder…
Or two. Or three. Or four. Or MORE!
New for 2024, a funny crime caper from the bestselling author of Spaceboy
David Walliams continues to take the literary world by storm. His tenth novel, BAD DAD, was an immediate number one, following the triumph of THE MIDNIGHT GANG, the biggest-selling children’s book of 2016. THE WORLD’S WORST CHILDREN 2, spent four weeks at industry number one.
David’s books have now exceeded 100 non-consecutive weeks at children’s number one, and have been translated into 53 languages, selling more than 35 million copies worldwide.
Adam Stower is an author and illustrator, who has collaborated with David Walliams on several of his books for children.
