this book is really good. i loved it. Its about a girl detective Mo and her friend/partner Dale. then a boat goes missing. And a murder has everyone in the tiny town talking
This is a great book ! It is about a girl who is an orphan . A crime is commited in her community and she helps solve it. It is a really great book!!!!
this book was pretty good if you wanted to light-read. The plot was okay w/ an orphan who lived with Ms. Lana and the Colonel... Moses, a girl always trying to find her mother who she never knew , was trying to solve a mystery w/ her best friend, Dale. The mystery to be solved was about a murder that occurred. They eventually figure out the murderer and his helper who was actually one of the detectives for the case. I would recommend it, but for people who like mystery books
This was a really great and fun book, it was suspenseful and you really just fell into the story, and fell in love with the characters.
This is a really great book. It is about an orphan who doesn't know who is mother is. Then a crime is committed in her new town. and are the crime stoppers really crime stoppers at all.
