This fourth book in the series brings Kitty to the emerald hills of Ireland where she meets a handsome stranger and is quickly swept up in a perplexing hundred-year-old family treasure hunt involving secret codes and puzzling clues that lead her on a fast-paced adventure that carries her from Dublin to London - from the decks of the ill-fated ocean liner Titanic to the temples of ancient Egypt and the streets of Jack the Ripper - until she finally unlocks the mystery and discovers the long-hidden treasure. Much like the earlier books in this series, Kitty Hawk and the Tragedy of the RMS Titanic is a perfect book to fire the imaginations of armchair detectives of all ages.

REVIEW

Another amazing book in the series, Kitty Hawk And The Tragedy Of The R.M.S. Titanic was total surprise this time. I have never read a titanic mystery book before. This book is very different from the other three books in the series. Who would have thought of Kitty Hawk + Titanic?
This time Kitty has to find a long losted family treasure and for that she solved sooooo many clues that my mind was confused half the time. She also discovers some interesting facts about Titanic. There were actually some people who predicted that Titanic was going to sink so they never stepped inside the ship despite having the ticket. Lucky them. But how on earth did they actually predicted? We also have a villian who is an inflexible, rugged old man who would do anything to save that 'painting'. I wanted to sucker punch him. He follwed them (Kitty + Andrew) like crazy everywhere but Kitty is Kitty. ;)
Talking about the characters, the stranger handsome guy who started this whole thing with Kitty, Andrew is totally incredible. He was with Kitty through thick and thin and encouraged her so much. Ellie, the goth was a cute character whose help was life saving in the end. Richard, the crazy puzzle solver is a total insane genius who also has a big hand in finding the treasure. In a nutshell, every character was well written and had an amazing part in everything.
Overall, I'll highly recommend this book to all the readers who love to read Sherlock Holmes novels!
Happy Reading!
