I'm excited to announce the release of Chase Under Pressure, my new mystery book for children 8-12 years of age.
Chase Under Pressure Synopsis
With huge prizes on the line at the state hamster race, the Apple Valley Elementary science team has been working overtime to prepare. Dash, the school's little speedster, is in the best shape of her life, and confidence is high, until the hamster turns up missing the morning of the event. Fifth-grader Chase Manning must overcome an unsupportive principal, the visiting members of a rival school, and even his own teammates to identify the thief and find Dash before the competition begins. Expect the unexpected on the pages of this single-day, real-time mystery thriller.
About the Chase Manning Mystery Series
The
Chase Manning Mystery Series features single-day, real-time thrillers that occur on an elementary school campus. The series launched with the award-winning
Chase Against Time, in which fifth-grader Chase Manning must investigate the mysterious disappearance of the cello that the school plans to auction off to save its prestigious music program. Its sequel,
Chase for Home, was released this past winter. Both books have enjoyed wonderful reviews from children, parents, and teachers. Young readers love the books' fast-paced, action-packed format while parents and teachers appreciate their kid-friendly tone and content.
