Case Of The Sinister Shadow

When trouble finds you on day one, mysteries cant be far behind...

Thirteen-year-old Theo Tanners final year at Lakeside Public School is off to a disastrous start. Not only does he immediately clash with new kid Maverick Sloane-the basketball star everyone seems to worship-but their hallway confrontation ends with Theos fist connecting with Mavericks nose. Now grounded and missing his familys weekend plans, Theos future is looking about as bright as detention room lighting.

An invitation to his eccentric uncles house thrusts Theo into a real-life mystery. The abandoned house next door has been dark and silent for months-until now. A shadowy figure is sneaking inside after nightfall, and Uncle Drew needs Theos help to figure out why.

Between dodging Maverick in the school hallways, nursing a hopeless crush on the new girl Frankie, and piecing together clues about the shadowy nighttime visitor, Theo discovers he might have inherited more than just his late fathers policemans badge. He might have his talent, too.

As the mystery deepens and the shadows intentions grow more sinister, Theo must summon his courage to uncover the truth-and perhaps find his own path along the way.
