The Botanic Hill Detectives Agency

Are you wondering how the Botanic Hill detectives became detectives and why they formed their agency? Here is the backstory!

Before they were detectives, our four friends and neighbors, Lanny, Lexi, Moki, and Rani, were out strolling one day while vacationing in Paris, France. As they passed an expensive jewelry store, out ran some diamond thieves, who crashed right into the four kids! The stolen diamond bracelets went flying out of the thieves’ pockets and landed on the sidewalk in front of many witnesses. The kids and other pedestrians held the criminals down until the police arrived. This “lucky accident” enabled the police to shut down a diamond-smuggling ring. The news and the kids’ parts in the captures went viral.

The four returned home to Las Palmitas, California, to heroes’ welcomes. Soon afterwards, they formed their detective agency. It didn’t take long for the cases to pour in. The friends didn’t know it yet, but they were in for the adventures of a lifetime! And they have invited YOU to join them.
