"When Did You See Her Last?"

" Sly noir for preteens. Chock-full of linguistic play and literary allusions to children's and classic literature, this is adventure mystery for young readers who like to think as they read." ― Kirkus Reviews
Before the Baudelaires became orphans, before he encountered A Series of Unfortunate Events, even before the invention of Netflix, Lemony Snicket was a boy discovering the mysteries of the world. This is his story . . .
In the fading town of Stain'd-by-the-Sea, young apprentice Lemony Snicket has a new case to solve when he and his chaperone are hired to find a missing girl. Is the girl a runaway? Or was she kidnapped? Was she seen last at the grocery store? Or could she have stopped at the diner? Is it really any of your business? These are All The Wrong Questions.
The mystery continues in Shouldn't You Be in School? and Why Is This Night Different from All Other Nights? , both available now.

"The author's trademark wit and talent for sustaining suspense make this fast-paced, noir mystery a fun choice for kids who enjoy a good whodunit. . . . A must-have." — School Library Journal

"Snicket introduces a sometimes charming, more often alarming cast of characters . . . all of whom keep the pages turning." — Booklist
