Mysteries are for kids too (SleuthFest Guest of Honor)
Zack is about to start at his new school, and in addition to
homework, school lunches, and bullies, Zack must also
contend with a ruthless hit man seeking a lost treasure, a
voodoo savvy ghost waiting to take possession of a new body,
and a soul-sucking zombie in the basement. Suddenly homework
doesn't seem so bad. Once again Chris Grabenstein proves his mastery of the
frightening and funny tale. Young readers, especially
reluctant ones, have found an inspiration to read in
Grabenstein's quirky characters and deadly situations.
