Twelve-year-old globetrotter Thea Lim-Lambert is spending a rare summer at home in Brooklyn, when she discovers a secret room in the back of her closet. There, among her grandfather Errol’s old diaries and peculiar carvings, is a clue Errol left to a massive hidden treasure. But to find it, she’ll need the help of two experienced sleuths—lucky for her, two of the best live in her building! Roya and Amin’s mystery podcast has earned them a stellar reputation, but they never could have guessed that their latest case would send them on a wild scavenger hunt in their own building. Clue by clue, they search the building from roof to cellar (thanks to Roya’s mom’s master key). But just when a solution seems near, they realize an essential piece is missing—locked away where none of them can reach it. And unless Thea finds the courage to stand up to her family the treasure of Ocean Parkway may be lost forever. . .Praise for The Queen of Ocean Parkway"A twisty mystery, a heartwarming adventure, and a love letter to New York that is equal parts Nancy Drew and Only Murders in the Building." —James Ponti, New York Times bestselling author of City Spies and The Sherlock Society"Part mystery, part journey of self-discovery, part lesson on how to let others in when you’ve gotten used to going at it alone, this is a delightful story of friendship, family, and community." —School Library Journal, starred review"An inventive puzzle filled with tenderness and warmth . . . Readers will love visiting Brooklyn with these exceedingly clever, kind, and compassionate characters." —Kirkus Reviews <h3>About the author</h3>Sarvenaz Tash is the author of nine novels (and counting) for kids, young adults, and adults including The Queen of Ocean Parkway series, The Geek's Guide to Unrequited Love, and A Whole Song and Dance.
