This is a great mystery for readers who are looking to step up from skinny hi-lo books to something slightly more substantial. The story is gripping and enjoyable. The characters are easy to sympathize with. Readers who like mysteries will enjoy reading this book. MS, HS. ADVISABLE. Reviewer: Jessica Moody, Library Media Specialist, Olympus Jr. High.
