Before Samantha Moon became a vampire, a mother, and a private investigator, she was a twelve-year-old detective who couldn't leave a mystery alone.
Sam has a gift for finding trouble... and solving it. With her trusty notebook and endless curiosity, she's already the best junior detective in town.
So when a traveling carnival rolls into town overnight, Sam is the first to notice something's wrong beneath the flashing lights and cheerful music. The animals are nervous. The fortune-teller knows her name. And at night, the shadows move on their own.
Then the kids start vanishing.
Sam and her best friend Jake sneak behind the tents to uncover the truth - and what they find isn't an illusion. It's a secret the carnival's ringleader will do anything to protect.
Armed with courage, quick thinking, and a fierce sense of justice, Sam races to expose the Carnival of Shadows before it slips away for good... and takes another kid with it.
Because some mysteries don't just test your courage - they prepare you for your destiny.
Second in the Young Samantha Moon series!
