Can four teen detectives solve an impossible crime, free an innocent man from jail, and still get their homework done on time?
It's a hot summer and 14-year-old Jeffrey Jones is grounded again. It doesn't matter that he and his best friend Pablo helped solve a baffling neighborhood burglary, it's the danger Jeffrey put himself in that sent his father's blood pressure through the roof. Now he's sentenced to an endless summer of mowing lawns and cleaning out dusty, cobweb-covered garages for cranky old Mr. Kozlowski. But when the brother of the cute girl next door is arrested for stealing a valuable painting, Jeffrey can't help himself. He and Pablo start a detective club and set out to investigate the crime. Together with their friends Marisol and Susie, they find themselves in a dark and dangerous mystery where no one is telling the truth and everyone has something to hide. With time running out, the four friends must marshal all of their detective skills to recover the stolen painting, rescue the older brother, and prove their own worth. A Personal Note to ParentsThese are the type of solve-them-yourself, teen detective mystery books that I enjoyed reading in the 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, and 9th grade, often late at night while under the covers and holding a flashlight. They're actually the first in an entire new genre of books for young readers: mature middle-grade and young adult mystery fiction. Books are precious things, but more than that, they are the strong backbone of civilization. They are the thread upon which it all hangs, and they can save us when all else is lost.-Louis L'Amour Other Books in This Mystery Series:
