Serendipity Mystery by R.F. Kristi is an engaging deep dive into crime, teamwork, and elements of mystery. A valuable treasure was stolen from the museum in Colombo. Will Inca’s detective agency be able to solve this crime? Inca and her crew went on a holiday trip to Sir Lanka. The author explained the atmosphere in Sri Lanka. The country boasted more than two thousand years of culture.

Serendipity Mystery is the 7th standalone children’s book in the Diary of a Snoopy Cat series that gives insight into Inca and Company. Inca is a super-duper cat detective and the head of the detective agency. The book also talked about Polo. He is an excitable Pekinese pup. Polo is small but absolutely a positive dog.

Serendipity Mystery was a delightful novel with several likable aspects. It took me only 2 hours to read through it. This will help the readers to get so much within a short period. The character depth is another outstanding asset of this novel. I fell in love with a character named Monk. He was a portly but an elegant blue Russian cat.

The author excels at portraying crime-solving, trust, fun, joy, and mystery. The advancement of similarities and differences between the animal characters along the different intervals is done correctly. It was a fascinating read from beginning to end, and I couldn't find a single dull moment in it.

I like that the plot development is genuine and logical. I ultimately had a lot of fun reading this book. One of the main themes of the book focuses on teamwork and unity. The cat detectives were a great team. Inca and her crew worked together to achieve a goal or complete a task. Another favorite of mine is the author’s descriptive ability. The description of the robbery case was so intriguing. Two men disguised as police officers and entered the museum premises to steal the sword. The author puts on a masterpiece of work.

There is nothing to dislike about this book. I enjoyed the book very much. In my opinion, it's a flawless novel. I would gladly give this book an excellent rating. The engaging plot, the reasonable storyline of animal characters and dialogue, and the character advancement are to be applauded. Therefore I rate the book 4 out of 4 stars. I couldn’t give it a lower rating. It is suitable for children between the ages of 7 to 12. The editing was impeccably done, and I could not find even a single error. The content was also valuable and engaging.
