I saw him driving his car!" "The widow's son has come back from the dead to get his revenge on me! His car was seen speeding down the road!" "Elvis has come back from the dead with a message for us!" Sean and Melissa know there's no such thing as ghosts, but how do you convince the town of that when a hot rod with no visible driver speeds down the road, then abruptly disappears into thin air? It's up to Bloodhounds, INC. to solve the mystery and attempt to bring some peace back to the widow, the sheriff, and the town that's going crazy! | Extra Notes: | Once again the kids are in the midst of a crazy mystery. Once again, what people blame on ghosts turns out to have a logical explanation. Bill Myers does two kinds of books dealing with ghosts. The younger kids books like BloodHounds INC. show that most "ghosts" are just misunderstandings or technology deceptions. His older books like the Forbidden Doors series deals with demons, a being that has the ability to masquerade as the commonly believed image of a ghost or human who has died. Both show that ghosts are not real, but whereas the books for older audiences do address the supernatural, the younger books are more lighthearted, dealing with humans rather than the supernatural. | Reviewer: | J:-)mi | Recommendation Scale: | 3 |
