Reviews
"A timely issue gives this mystery a 'ripped from the headlines' flavor, but the real kick for readers comes from a believable eighth-grade heroine's investigation of a school scandal." - ALA Booklist (starred review) "In a literature notoriously light on mysteries, Abrahams' second outing for kids stands out as a deliciously plotted, highly satisfying adventure." - Kirkus Reviews

Synopsis
"A terrific yarn, full of smart detection and hip good humor" (Stephen King) Behind the Curtain is the second book in the Echo Falls mystery series by bestselling crime novelist Peter Abrahams, following the acclaimed Down the Rabbit Hole . Perfect for middle school readers looking for a good mystery. In this "deliciously plotted, highly satisfying adventure" (Kirkus), the Sherlock Holmes-loving eight-grade heroine, Ingrid, starts to see some alarming signs of trouble in her home. Her dad is surfing the internet in search of a job when Ingrid had no idea his job was in jeopardy. Her brother, Ty, is trying to succeed on the high school football team--perhaps at the cost of his health. And Ingrid's beloved soccer coach is replaced by an icy newcomer who seems a little too savvy to be in it for the postgame pizza. True to her hero, Sherlock Holmes, Ingrid begins fishing around to find out who's really pulling the strings in her hometown of Echo Falls. But one morning, while en route to the dreaded MathFest, Ingrid is kidnapped and locked in the trunk of a car. Even if she escapes, will anyone believe her story? The third and final book in this Edgar Award-nominated series is Into the Dark ., In echo falls you never know what's coming next -- and everyone has a secret. Things are amiss at 99 Maple Lane: Ingrid's dad's job is in jeopardy, but he won't explain why. Ingrid's brother, Ty, is getting buff -- really buff -- but when Ty starts getting moody, Ingrid wonders if there's more to his physical fitness than lifting weights. Meanwhile, Ingrid's beloved soccer coach is replaced by an icy newcomer named Julia LeCaine, who seems a little too savvy to be in it for the postgame pizza. True to her hero, Sherlock Holmes, Ingrid begins fishing around to find out who's really pulling the strings in Echo Falls. But one morning, while en route to the dreaded MathFest, Ingrid is kidnapped and locked in the trunk of a car. Even if she escapes, will anyone believe her story?

    Shipping was timely, packaging well done, and smartly described in the Ebay posting. The jpeg had real clarity, not always the case in other instances. The bar itself is beautiful, boasting a wonderfully, evenly distributed, brown toning, the best as I’ve ever seen. Very, very pleased with this purchase! And at a good value! I’ll have keep an eye out for this seller’s future offerings.
