The Sherlock Society by James Ponti

Alex and Zoe want to make money this summer and since their last name is Sherlock, why not start a detective agency with their friends Yadi and Lina?

Mom shut that plan down quickly. Lol What were they thinking starting a detective agency as teenagers!?!

Grandpa to the rescue! They can use their puzzle solving skills helping him with cold stories that he never finished when he was a reporter.

They research through his old files and decide to try to solve the case of Al Capone’s lost treasure said to be buried near them in Florida.

They track down clues and are determined to get rich until they discover pollutants destroying Florida wildlife.

They trade their dreams of riches for an environmental mystery and their adventure becomes even more dangerous than a mob boss mystery.

As a Nancy Drew kid I loved this book! It will entertain middle grade readers and get them hooked on this new series.
