Book 35 - Mondays are Murder

Mondays are Murder by Tanya Landman - first published in 2009

This is a short but action packed children's novel set on the fictional island of Murrag, which is supposed to be adjacent to Coll and Tiree.

Poppy Fields and 4 other teenagers accept a free holiday on Murrag in return for being guinea pigs for a new activity centre that Mike and Isabella are opening on the otherwise uninhabited island.  However there has already been one suspicious death before their arrival and within a few days 3 other members of staff have been killed.  A big storm means that the island is cut off from outside help.  Poppy turns detective to work out who the murderer is but in doing so she puts her own life in danger.  7/10
