What a great mystery! For quite a while, I've been looking for something similar to the Nancy Drew and the Hardy Boys mysteries but written for today's more sophisticated kids, with better developed characters and more believable plot lines. And I think I have finally found exactly what I was looking for in this book by Sam Grasdin. I love the narrator's voice in this story -- so kid-like, so likeable, and so easy to relate to! I love the way the kids use technology and logic to solve the mystery. Nate's character is wonderful, but so are the others, too! I especially liked Gadget, the "electronics genius." A very nice book! I hope it becomes a series -- I think it will since the kids were introduced to a new case at the end of this book. Five stars!
