    Alicia has been kidnapped. Can Brian and Roni find her kidnapper and save the day? That’s the plot in a nutshell, but
    the complete mystery would fill a large, very complicated nutshell.

    Brian and Roni go to the same high school, but the only things they seem to have in common are frequent visits to the
    principal’s office. Brian’s a science nerd, and Roni is an ambitious reporter for the school paper. Alicia is a fellow high
    school student who has disappeared. This first in a series dubbed THE BLOODWATER MYSTERIES has Brian and
    Roni teaming up to solve the crime.

    For mystery fans this book has it all. There is the big old family house connected to a possible curse. Part of the
    adventure takes the crime-solving duo to Wolf Spider Island to deal with colorful characters like Driftwood Doug and
    a butterfly collector named Mr. Nestor. Add in a wacky police department, suspicious high school thugs who key cars,
    and a trip to Nun’s Island to search for a missing boat, and you have just a few of the adventures in this fast-paced
    book.

    Pete Hautman, author of GODLESS and MR. WAS, combines talents with fellow Minnesota author Mary Logue, to
    create this new series. Fans of complicated whodunit tales will not be disappointed.
