Remy and Roadkill Mystery Books in Order

The Remy and Roadkill Mystery series begins with The Skull, a traditional mystery aimed at younger readers and built around a group of curious teens. Its lead is thirteen-year-old Remy Bauer, a bright girl with a strong interest in forensics and a habit of looking beyond the obvious answer.

Remy lives with her mother and grandmother while her father spends much of his time traveling and gambling. Her home life gives the book some emotional grounding, but the story gets moving when she visits an estate sale at Sycamore Mansion and buys what she believes is a monkey skull. She wants to reconstruct the animal and learn how it died.

For help, Remy turns to Rob Haislett, known as Roadkill, who photographs dead animals, and Andy, a runaway without a family to rely on. Each teen brings a different skill and point of view. Their interest in evidence and their willingness to ask questions make them a natural, if unofficial, investigation team.

The skull does not turn out to be what Remy thought it was. The discovery ties the group to Sycamore Mansion, where they find summer work and begin looking for answers about the remains. The closer they get to the truth, the clearer it becomes that someone does not want three observant thirteen-year-olds poking around.

They are in over their heads, and they know it.

The book keeps the focus on clue-following, friendship, and the unsettling feeling of an old house with secrets. It has the shape of a classic teen detective story, with forensic details giving it a more modern angle. The mystery is serious enough to create real tension, but Remy, Roadkill, and Andy remain at the heart of it.

Because The Skull is the first listed Remy and Roadkill story, it is the natural place to start. Readers who like young investigators, old estates, and mysteries assembled piece by piece will find a compact case with a grounded teen perspective.
