Sincegraduating he has solved all sorts of minor mysteries at school and at home. Now, if a crime has been committed in the playground he wants to know about it, and he will stop at nothing in his unrelenting quest for justice.
In the best tradition of crime-busting duos the pairing is not without a bit of disagreement. Moon sticks to the rules, Red knows how to break them but their friendship is built on trust and a mutual respect. Red abhors crime and has felt at first hand the tarnish of being wrongly accused. While Moon is the brains of the investigation, Red tends to charge into situations without thinking about the consequences.
Mia is a social butterfly, dropping into social groups to get the latest information. She tends to only help Half Moon's investigation when it furthers her story or when Half Moon can convince her she'll get a scoop out of it in the end.
Mia's knowledge of playground politics and her ability to read a social situation in a second is invaluable. She brings the emotional intelligence that Half Moon and Red's investigations sorely lack.
Half Moon thinks Mia would make a fantastic detective but it's the story Mia is after and this can lead her into her own moral dilemmas. Mia has a secret soft spot for Red, but being Mia, this is expressed by being meaner to Red than everyone else.
April considers herself merely to be an entrepreneur, who sees an opportunity and takes it. April would never entertain the idea that she is the sort of low life thief that Half Moon would investigate.
Self-serving, manipulative, and clever enough to cover her tracks, April's charms ensure that her nose stays clean. She sends in her minions to work on her behalf and uses her astute judgement to plan her own crimes knowing how to profit by staying safely on the sidelines of the clumsy criminal attempts of others.
