The Secret Key

By: Lena Jones

Narrated by: Aspen Reiss

Meet thirteen-year-old Agatha Oddly – a bold, determined heroine, and the star of a stylish new detective series.

Agatha Oddlow has been a detective for as long as she can remember – she’s just been waiting for her first big case. And nothing gets bigger than saving the City of London from some strange goings-on.

With a scholarship to the prestigious St Regis School, a cottage in the middle of Hyde Park, a room full of beloved sleuthing novels, and a secret key that gives her access to a whole hidden side of London, Agatha is perfectly poised to solve the mystery of what’s going on. But just who can she trust when no one is quite who they seem…

the main character was badly behaved & unlikable

I mostly thought the main character was badly behaved & unlikable. Her choices were poorly thought out & she isn't a heroine I would want any child to imitate

Snooze Fest!

I had high hopes for this book, but it turned out to be very underwhelming. 1st attempt listening to this book, I fell asleep. 2nd attempt listening to this book, I only made it to chapter 5. 3rd attempt listening to this book, I listened up to chapter 7. I finally forced myself to finish this book only because I dont like leaving books unfinished. The narrator is monotone and speaks low. Even with the volume turned all the way up, it was difficult to hear her. I won't be listening to the other books in this series.
