I recently read this middle-grade novel (Eerdmans Books for Young Readers), by debut author Pamela Ehrenberg. She is local in D.C. and I happened to see her at a book signing and bought the book. I knew nothing about it, but having read it now, I highly recommend it, especially for boys!

I wrote a pseudo-review of it on my blog, including some "lessons learned" re: how Pamela creates suspense for the reader throughout what would not typically be considered a suspenseful book.
