- Book 2 of 12: A Mystery Searchers Book
A wholesome family mystery series for tweens and teens, 10-15 years
So, uh, okay. Wait! I mean… a ghost? No way. They don’t exist, right?
Right. In that case, who’s ripping off precious relics from the Yavapai Courthouse Museum? How does this—this, well, whatever it is—how does it bypass the museum’s security system?
And while we’re at it, how does the “specter” walk through locked doors and windows? As in seriously locked, and always in the middle of the night in a spooky, century-old building. It’s enough to freak you right out!
If the “ghost” strikes again, the museum’s very future is in doubt. A mystifying game of cat and mouse ensues as the mystery searchers play detective. . . good, old-fashioned sleuthing is paired with a range of high-tech devices to beat the strange intruder at its—his?—own game. It’s a thrilling ride but time is running out!
Interview with the author
Q - What makes The Mystery Searchers Family Book Series so special?
It’s a mix of things, really. When I started the series, I wanted to integrate the things that I liked as a 10-15 year-old. . . from the 4th or 5th grade all the way into junior high school. I loved mystery books which lead, often, to mystery solving, crime and detective stories, and action and adventure. So I would devour books like the Hardy Boys, Nancy Drew, or Enid Blyton’s The Famous Five series. I quickly realized that clean, wholesome books were important too, and I’ve integrated that concept in every Mystery Searchers installment.
Q - What order should I read the books in?
I’ve written the series so that you can read them in any order. By the time you finish any one of the books, all the threads will come together.
Q – Are there more installments coming in the series?
None currently planned, but there ARE twelve exciting books in the series to enjoy.
Q - Does the author offer any other clean, wholesome books for this age group?
Yes! The first installment of The Time Travelers Series will be released in July, 2023.
