Oliver's parents are retiring from exploring, and Oliver is looking forward to living a life in one location and making friends. However, they haven't even spent one night in their new home when his parents set off to explore some islands before they and the islands disappear.

This is a transitional book from easy readers to chapter books, and it's a lot of fun. The illustrations are great, the story is fast moving, and the characters are fun and creative. In other words, it's perfect for the target 2-5 grade audience.

NOTE: I received an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.

After reading the first book I was hooked and left needing to read the next as soon as!!

Love the darkeness of this book, tom finds a cd on the tube and curiosity make him play the cd where he witnesses something gruesome!
Which then leaves him and his shopaholic wife in danger!


These books are so easy to ready they are so descriptive making it easy to imagine what’s going on.


Not only have you got crime solving going on in the book but you also get snippets of Roy graces life, what happened to sandy who one day just vanishes, will he ever get over it and accept that she is gone? Can he ever have a happy relationship with Cleo ?

"It’s almost like these three sisters are a part of my family... I grew up in Sweden (New York, too, and by the time I read this book, was making my own life in London in my late teens). The world around me was not exactly celebrating cultural diversity... this book, and books like “The Color Purple,” “I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings,” and “Beloved,” took me by the hand, held me, beckoned me into womanhood, aroused a love of my heritage, and love for myself. I ate this book in one serving. It was passed down my by mother... again, I’ve given it to my daughters and waited, impatiently, to talk to them about it as they’ve read."
