The Ministry of Unladylike Activity is the start of a thrilling new World War Two mystery featuring two resourceful children May and Eric desperate to be taken on as spies for the titular government ministry. Masquerading as evacuees, May and Eric find themselves as Elysium Hall, home to the wealthy Verey family, and suspect there are secrets to be uncovered. And then, someone is murdered…
