Synopsis

Olivia Sharp, cousin to super sleuth Nate the Great, is a detective too! Rather than solve mysteries like Nate, Olivia helps friends with their problems by detecting what's wrong beneath the surface. You'll be won over by Olivia's spunk, eccentricities, and can-do spirit.

What does a princess do best? Give (unwanted) orders!

Olivia Sharp, agent for secrets, is taking on a tough case. Her friend Desiree wants to run the Fillmore Street School. But Desiree is bossy. She wants everyone to stand up straight. And get a haircut. Desiree is driving all the kids crazy! Can Olivia help Desiree be the Princess of the Fillmore Street School--and keep the peace?
