This is the first book in the Sixth Grade Spies series. Paola and Phoebe are eleven-year-old cousins and natives of the Upper East Side. They are spirited girls who love adventure, frappucinos, Sephora and boys, in that order. They are also secret detectives who work for the Commissioner of the New York Police Department. Paola and Phoebe already have a string of solved crimes to their credit when the Lip Gloss Murder goes down. A young woman drops dead at the Urban Decay counter at Sephora on 86th street---the very Sephora that is the girls' spiritual home. The murder weapon is a poisoned vial of lip gloss. This time, it's personal. As Paola and Phoebe race to solve the murder, they encounter a devastatingly handsome 14-year old computer hacker, ruthless Russian assassins and the Olsen twins. In one night alone, they crash the hottest nightclub in town, break into a loft in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, learn salsa dancing against their will and solve a mystery that has stumped NYPD's finest. Join Paola and Phoebe on this fast-paced adventure through New York City!
