Synopsis "Petscapade: Mystery Book Club #1"
***Purchase the PAPERBACK and get the Kindle edition FREE*** A missing cat... Irate neighbours... Curious young investigators... Written in homage to the Enid Blyton mystery books, this story is set in modern times and deals with modern social issues that our young people have to face. Five friends join together to form the Mystery Book Club. However, what starts as a fun Saturday afternoon meet-up, soon develops into an investigation. Someone is stealing cats in the neighbourhood. Guided by the books they love, the friends search for the culprit. Will they be able to catch the thief before he strikes again? A coming of age tale, the story takes the youngsters through an adult world of prejudice and social norms. As they attempt to solve the mystery, they also learn to navigate new waters. This will also appeal to lovers of cozy mysteries and herald a new era of amateur sleuths.Books #2 and #3 will be out in 2019! GOODREADS / KINDLE REVIEW by Brian Marshall A fun, engaging meow-done-it that will appeal to YA and Not So YA readers alike. The characters are people you want to spend time with, and yet each comes complete with flaws. The dialog is clever without feeling staged or forced. But what really impressed me about the book were two things. First off, I was happy to spend time in a world where kids DID something besides just posting endless selfies. Secondly, I was surprised by the story's depth and nuance; how authority figures, whether parents or policemen, were sometimes supportive and open-hearted, sometimes closed-minded instead. And when the mystery is finally solved, both reader and sleuths learn a valuable lesson: wrongdoing can result not from evil, but confusion and human failings.Here's hoping there's a sequel soon. Our cats are already getting antsy.
