Bookroo's summary

In a museum where nothing is as it seems, the Museum Mystery Squad faces a puzzling case: missing donations and scattered coins. Techie Nabster, quick Kennedy, and observant Laurie, with Colin the hamster, team up with futuristic robots to uncover the truth. Can these high-tech helpers catch a cunning thief? Dive into a world of riddles, red herrings, and unexpected twists as the Squad unravels the mystery. Will the robots' skills be enough to solve the case, or will the thief outsmart them all? Join the adventure and find out!

From the publisher

Some people think that museums are boring places full of glass cases, dust and stuff no one cares about: wrong! In a hidden headquarters below the exhibits there’s a gang ready to handle dangerous, spooky or just plain weird problems: the Museum Mystery Squad. Techie-genius Nabster, mile-a-minute Kennedy and sharp-eyed Laurie (along with Colin the hamster!) tackle the surprising conundrums happening at the museum. From pre-historic creatures that move and secret Egyptian codes to missing treasure and strange messages from the past, there’s no brain-twisting, totally improbable puzzle the Squad can’t solve. ————– Has someone been taking money from the museum’s donations at night? Why are there coins all over the floor? In the Case of the Curious Coins the Squad enlists the help of a few metallic friends – robots from a new futuristic exhibition. These super-cool robots might be able to build furniture, cook up a feast and send messages, but can they spy on a thief? ————— Young readers will love the riddles, red herrings and big reveals jam-packed into this fun-filled series of mystery stories by Mike Nicholson. The enjoyable extras like wacky facts and activities, as well as zany illustrations by Mike Phillips, will keep amateur detectives entertained for hours.
