A wholesome family mystery series for tweens and teens, 10-15 years


How can one man-surrounded by two dozen fellow workers-flatout vanish into thin air? Just. . .  gone. Like he never existed. And no one seems to care.

But not before he sends a strange text message to Kathy. "Pirates are operating out here and they're dangerous. I can't prove it, not yet, but I need your help. Please call asap."

And she doesn't even know the guy! 

What on earth is happening at Deception Gap Railroad Yard? With the help of a hi-tech drone - not to mention Heidi Hoover and Detective Joe Ryan - the mystery searchers embark on a baffling search for the missing man. But who did the deed? Is it too late? Has "Beau" vanished. . . forever?

Danger alert! If our young detectives persevere, could they disappear too?


Interview with the author

Q - What makes The Mystery Searchers Series so special?

It's a mix of things, really. When I started the series, I wanted to integrate the things that I liked as a 10-15 year-old-from the 4th or 5th grade, all the way into junior high school. I loved mystery books which lead, often, to mystery solving, crime and detective stories, and action and adventure. So I would devour books like the Hardy Boys, Nancy Drew, or Enid Blyton's The Famous Five series. I quickly realized that clean, wholesome books were important too, and I've integrated that concept in every Mystery Searchers installment.


Q - What order should I read the books in?

I've written the series so that you can read them in any order. By the time you finish any one of the books, all the threads will come together.


Q - Are there more installments coming in the series?

Yes! Currently I'm releasing two books every year.
