How do you write a science filled book that isn't about science? Introducing the F.A.R.T. books (which are not about farts).
The Forensic Amateur Research Team (F.A.R.T.) is a group of four switched on kids from Somerton high school, who go about solving crimes and investigating mysteries in their spare time. Each member of the team a different skill, and occasionally delicious snacks, as they piece together the clues. Each book is a new adventure filled with puzzles, science snippets, DIY experiments and even the odd recipe.
