Jazz travels to Oakhaven expecting to conduct one final, perfectly organised interview with Mayor Thalia during the town’s Renewal Ceremony. But when Aurel, a magpie messenger from Crystal Cove, arrives carrying the valuable Tideglass Compass—and the compass suddenly disappears—Jazz becomes part of the evidence herself! With Flopsy asking the questions for a change, Jazz must carefully remember everything she saw. Their search leads through the ceremony grounds, past an empty pedestal and towards an unexpected clue from Sly. As the mystery unfolds, Jazz discovers how much Oakhaven has changed. Mayor Thalia has grown into a confident leader, the Protectors continue guarding the Hollow Root, and former rivals are rebuilding trust through honest actions. Jazz’s Unexpected Oakhaven Interview is a funny and surprising conclusion to the Jazz Interviews series. It celebrates curiosity, friendship, responsibility and the idea that trust is rebuilt one honest choice at a time. Perfect for young readers who enjoy talking-animal mysteries, gentle fantasy adventures and clever investigations.
