Cam Jansen has a special talent. Whenever she closes her eyes and says "click," she can call up a perfect picture in her mind of anything she has ever seen. This is very useful when she plays Geography with her best friend Eric--and also when she's solving mysteries. When Cam and her family meet Aunt Molly at the Royal Hotel, the last thing they have planned for their day is a mystery. But then they meet Mrs. Wright, who gave her luggage and her cat to a bellhop while she checked in, but now can't find them. Can Cam's photographic memory help solve the mystery? Award-winning author David A. Adler's books, including Cam Jansen and the Mystery of the Dinosaur Bones and Cam Jansen and the Chocolate Fudge Mystery, encourage young readers to pay attention to carefully placed details. Christina Moore's memorable narration adds to the delight of Cam's problem-solving adventures.
Christopher Rowe is back and there are more puzzles, riddles, and secrets to uncover in this fourth novel of the award-winning Blackthorn Key series.
Christopher Rowe has no idea who he is. After being shipwrecked in Devonshire, he wakes up alone, his memories gone. Villagers tell him he was possessed by an unseen evil, and only became conscious after being visited by the local witch.
As Christopher tries to get his bearings, he realizes his current state may be far from coincidence. Dark events have been happening in this corner of Britain—village children are disappearing without a trace. There are whispers that the malevolent ghost of the White Lady has returned to steal the children away, one by one, and consume their souls.
Thankfully, friends Tom and Sally find Christopher and help him reconnect with his unique skills and talents, even as his memories elude him. But as motives and secrets are revealed, Christopher finds himself in a desperate race to reclaim his memories and discover the missing children before it's too late.
