Whiffy Newton is the kid detective at the center of Rebecca Lim’s middle grade mystery series. He takes on cases with wonderfully over-the-top names, like “the Riddle of the Two-Tone Trousers” and “the Affair of the Fiendish Phantoms.”
The character is aimed at younger readers who enjoy lighthearted mysteries with plenty of humor. Whiffy is clever and curious, and his adventures have a playful, old-fashioned detective story feel that sets them apart from darker mystery fiction.
