Review:

From Kirkus ReviewsA better-than-average middle volume that keeps the story rolling along nicely. —Kirkus Reviews From CurledUp.comA deep mystery is set up, done in such a way that it assumes intelligence on the part of a young reader, rather than spelling it all out the way so many books written for kids do....Thoroughly enjoyable. —CurledUp.com
