Gifting
Most presents are over by lunchtime. A Classified Cases mystery keeps turning up in the mail for weeks, addressed to the detective, each delivery a little more intriguing than the last.
Pick the right mystery for the recipient's age and reading confidence. Our case pages list ages, length and difficulty.
Enter the recipient's name and shipping address.
Write a note and we'll send it along. You can also choose a date for us to email the recipient's grown-up that a case is on its way, or let the first box be the surprise.
Box 1 ships to the recipient. Later deliveries follow the detective's progress, straight to the same address.
For a birthday or holiday, order a couple of weeks ahead so Box 1 arrives in time. The rest of the case follows at the detective's own pace, so there's no rush once it starts.
The first time your detective signs in, the portal asks for the order number so the case can be linked to a grown-up's parent view. You'll find it in your confirmation email; share it with the recipient's family.
Every case page shows ages, weeks and difficulty at a glance.
Something crashed in the fields outside town. Something small walked away. Find it before anyone else does.

Tell us the age and what they love reading, and we will point you to the right case.
