Santosh Tiwari asked Stuart Gibbs:

Hey, I just wanted to know abut your outlining process Mr. Gibbs. Do you outline your books from the beginning to the end or do you first create the problem, then figure out its solution and then work backwards and write the plot around the problem and its solution? BTW I love you Spy School and Fun Jungle series.

Stuart Gibbs You are exactly right with your second guess. Crime first. Solution. Then the framework of how to solve the crime.
