Jade did not take Sophia's phone.
When it vanishes from a backpack during gym class, every eye in the room lands on her.
The whispers start before the bell rings. By lunch, the rumor has raced down every hallway, and even the friends she has counted on for years are looking at her differently.
Jade could keep her head down and hope it all blows over. Instead, she decides to uncover what really happened.
With her loyal friend Jake at her side, she follows the clues one by one, tracking suspects, testing alibis, and piecing together what everyone else missed before the rumors ruin her reputation for good.
Because rumors move faster than the truth, and only the truth can clear her name.
Inside this page-turning middle school mystery:- A page-turning whodunit in short, fast-paced chapters.
- A heroine worth rooting for, falsely accused and determined to clear her name.
- Friendship put to the test: who stands beside you when everyone else walks away?
- Values woven in, not preached: honesty, courage, and fairness.
- Independent readers ages 8 to 12 building confidence with short chapters.
- Family read-alouds and one-more-chapter bedtimes.
- Parents, grandparents, and gift-givers who want screen-free stories with honest characters.
- Teachers and classroom shelves, with natural discussion starters about rumors and fairness.
As Jade closes in on the answer, she discovers this case is about more than a missing phone. It's about the courage to speak up, the fairness every kid deserves, and discovering who your true friends are-the ones who stand beside you when the whole school turns away.
The Missing Phone is Book 2 in The Friendship Code series. The mystery stands completely on its own, so new readers can jump right in.
