Eddie Red Undercover: Mystery On Museum Mile
Author(s): Marcia Wells
"Bound to be a series that will appeal to fans of fast-paced mysteries." —SLJ Not many sixth-graders work undercover for the NYPD, but Edmund Xavier Lonnrot, code name Eddie Red, is not just any sixth-grader. A “near-death ice cream experience” lands him as a material witness in the police station with his dad, where the NYPD first discovers Eddie's photographic memory and uncanny sketch-artist abilities. Things get dangerous when Eddie is recruited to help track down the infamous Picasso Gang that’s casing NYC's famous Museum Mile. Look for the sequel on p. 53!
Review(s):
"A sure pleaser for Cam Jansen grads or anyone fond of knotty, lightweight capers solved with brainpower (and a little luck)."—Kirkus "Eddie Red is bound to be a series that will appeal to fans of fast-paced mysteries" —School Library Journal "This is a strong start to a promising new series, and as Eddie would say, it's uber-cool." —Booklist "In Wells's lighthearted, voice-driven debut novel, first in a planned series, Eddie never truly seems in danger, but his audacity and persistance, a clever mystery that unfolds atmospherically, and Calo's sly pencil portraits result in a fun sleuthing story." —Publishers Weekly
