Description
Theo Duncan is just an ordinary student. Except he also happens to be the son of the Prime Minister, Will Duncan.
Theo and Sammy are drawn into a new mystery when an arsonist sets fire to one of the grandest parts of Parliament – Speaker’s House – disrupting the campaign for the House of Lords reform referendum. Everyone suspects that the radical political group, the Novembrists, are responsible.
But Theo and Sammy know that MI5 have found no evidence linking the group to the fires that have been set around London in recent months. And the fire at Speaker’s House is different from all the others. Because this time, somebody is dead…
Was the murder of a respected member of government the real aim? Or is someone framing the Novembrists deliberately to thwart the referendum? To find out, Theo and Sammy have to go undercover and put their own lives on the line.

Nicole V, Reviewer
I'm not a YA, but over recent years I've developed a fondness for YA mysteries, and I'm so glad that I discovered Sarah Lustig's Westminster Mysteries. Murder at Speaker's House is the third and final book in the series, featuring the Prime Minister's son, Theo, and his best friend, Sammy as teen sleuths on a mission to uncover who killed a member of Parliament. Very cleverly written, and this last book ties up the series quite well. I really hope that Ms. Lustig has plans for a new series!!! A+++
