The Odds of Getting Even de Sheila Turnage

The Odds of Getting Even

Autor Sheila Turnage
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 4 apr 2017 – vârsta de la 10 ani
Humor and action abound in the next Mo & Dale Mystery--follow-up to the Newbery Honor winner and New York Times bestseller Three Times Lucky

The trial of the century has come to Tupelo Landing, NC. Mo and Dale, aka Desperado Detectives, head to court as star witnesses against Dale's daddy--confessed kidnapper Macon Johnson. Dale's nerves are jangled, but Mo, who doesn't mind getting even with Mr. Macon for hurting her loved ones, looks forward to a slam dunk conviction--if everything goes as expected. Of course nothing goes as expected. Macon Johnson sees to that. In no time flat, Macon's on the run, Tupelo Landing's in lockdown, and Dale's brother's life hangs in the balance. With Harm Crenshaw, newly appointed intern, Desperado Detectives are on the case. But it means they have to take on a tough client--one they'd never want in a million years.

Look for all the Mo & Dale Mysteries: Three Times Lucky, The Ghosts of Tupelo Landing, and The Law of Finders Keepers
