Skylar Robbins: The Mystery of the Hidden Jewels
Carrie Cross
Our favorite 13 yr super sleuth is back and better than ever ! ! !
After
a fun, intriguing summer, Skylar is back and yet again more changes
have come into her life. Her dad was lucky enough to sell his
non-alcoholic cough syrup, while in Paris over the summer. This means a
move to a bigger house ! ! ! Skylar just wants to a house still close
to her bff, Alexis and in the same school district. I mean really, what
13 yr old wants to start middle school in a new school ???
House
hunting becomes a bore, UNTIL they reach a mansion sitting on a steep
hillside, dark storm clouds are looming over this deserted, abandoned
home. The windows are cracked, screens torn, shingles missing and birds
have made the inside their home. Yet, this place calls to Skylar. . . .
there of course is a mystery behind it. The owner, Xandra Collins,
disappeared without a trace three years ago. Xandra has hidden jewels
buried somewhere on her estate. Her heirs have searched and no luck.
NOW, its Skylar's turn, she is excited and soon starts turning over
clues. . . . . But, the question is will she find them before someone
else does ???
I can not express enough how much I love the
Skylar Robbin books ! ! ! Carrie hits the mark on excitement and
laying the story out. Its an easy read for any teen, I am sure they will
be sucked in as quick as us adults are. Thank you for another great
novel and I look forward to the next book ! !
