This is by far the most exciting mystery novel I have read in the past two years, and I read one every three days! It has believable villains and heroes, children with courage and tremendous suspense.

New author for me
So far I am only through half the book, but only because I have been very busy. It is a good book, and I believe that this is an author that I will read in the future. Good characters that you can follow, good plot, and keeps your interest.
