I liked this book, but I had no time to read it. It was kind of hard to get into it after a few days. I really like this series though. I'm really excited to read the next one. ( )

Another great mystery by Peter Abrahams about Ingrid Levin-Hill. This time, Ingrid suspects that her brother is taking steroids. As she gets involved in her investigation, she is kidnapped. She continues investigating and eventually finds the drug ring, but her danger is not over. She and Grampy are almost killed before the complete crime is solved. I think both boys and girls will like this book, even though the main character is a girl. Sports are involved and there are two main male characters, Ingrid's brother, Ty, and her boyfriend, Joey. The book is written in third person. The writer gives clues throughout the book, so you can guess the answer to the mystery. There are just enough clues to keep you involved. Another can't put it down mystery by this author. The first Echo Falls mystery was "Down the Rabbit Hole."

The second book in the series following the sleuthing techniques of Ingrid Levon-Hill. In this one she solves the mystery of her brother's steroid use, gets kidnapped, and is the Wizard of Oz Christmas production. ( )

I read this because I loved the first book in the series. This book is good too...but not as good as the first. ( )

Book description

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0060737042, Hardcover)

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?

In this sequel to Down the Rabbit Hole a clever young girl learns that mysterious forces are at work in her town -- and exposing them could put her life in jeopardy.
