Mo LeBeau is a plucky Southern girl living in a small town in North
Carolina where everyone knows everyone’s business. Mo was found on a stormy
night and while she constantly searches for her birth mother, a new mystery sweeps
the town and Mo and her best friend Dale are on the case to bring justice where
it is due.
This book has a pretty slow beginning but suddenly becomes a true page
turner. The protagonist is a fun, quirky girl who is fun to follow, and her
drive to solve the mystery of the town is an extremely productive way for her
to spend her summer vacation. All of the supporting characters truly bring this
Southern town to life. For older children looking for a great mystery- part
adventure story, this book is highly recommended.
