Mystery at the Biltmore

The Biltmore in New York City is full of mysteries, and Elodie LaRue, a novice detective, plans to piece together the clues and solve the case of the missing jewels. Left behind by her globe-trotting detective parents once again, Elodie decides to prove she’s worthy of joining them on a case by setting up her own detective agency at her renowned Upper West Side home, The Biltmore. When a pair of sapphire and diamond earrings mysteriously disappear from Mrs. Vanderzoot’s apartment, Elodie is asked to solve the case.

The LaRue Detective Agency has gained a reputation at The Biltmore as the investigators to call, so it’s no surprise when they are asked to solve the catnapping case. What is a surprise: being asked to keep this investigation top secret! Will the LaRue detective agency have what it takes to solve this challenging case? A murder mystery movie is being filmed in the courtyard of the Biltmore, starring a celebrity building resident, Bijou, the fluffy white cat famous for inheriting the entire fortune of a popular designer—including his Biltmore apartment.

With a 100% success rate, it is no wonder why The LaRue Detective Agency has become the investigators to call at The Biltmore. But could the recipe robbery become Elodie's own recipe for disaster? Biltmore resident Chef Sebastian plans to open a new pastry shop where he will unveil his pièce de resistance—the cruffin (part muffin, part croissant, entirely delicious). That is, until all of Chef's recipes are stolen from his apartment.
