The Ghost Car

Arthur "Artie" MacArthur is a tenacious twelve-year-old with good detective instincts, somewhat questionable judgment, and two very good friends: Jenny Adams-tofu-eating and quick-witted, with a large dose of common sense and a sarcastic wit; and Sam Franklin-bologna-eating, sports-loving, mystery-hating, but always there in a pinch. From Artie and Sam's outrageous sandwich-making contests (the sight and smell of which makes Jenny nauseous), to the danger that lurks around every corner once Artie and his friends decide to solve a case, the humor and excitement is nonstop.

In The Ghost Car, a number of mysterious sightings of a priceless antique car stolen 25 years earlier from a local car show has the town in an uproar. Is it a "ghost" or the real car? And why, after all these years has it reappeared? Artie is determined to get to the bottom of it and find the car-and in the process solve a 25-year-old mystery the police say is hopeless.
