"Three teenagers, two love birds, plus one dead body add up to a magical mystery you'll remember!"
— Robin Hathaway The Doctor And The Dead Man's Chest "Heusler introduces a spunky protagonist, an updated version of Nancy Drew, humorous, intelligent and competent when thrust into deadly danger." "Engaging teenage characters, bright dialogue, and a scary plot, too. A good read!" "Marianna Heusler introduces savvy young adult characters who charm the readers as they step forward to be uniquely themselves, untraditional and strong."  |
