Sinopsis

A séance in a cemeteryá. . . A phantom figure rising from the graveá. . . A raspy voice accusing the living of killing the deadá. . . On a stormy evening in SavannahâÇÖs Bonaventure Cemetery Nick learns that dabbling in the occult can leave you chasing spooks in the night. A Stand-Alone Middle Grade Mystery!Nick Caden is no stranger to supernatural mysteries. From uncovering vampire killers to catching zombies and werewolves, Nick relies on truth, facts, and his favorite cop and detective shows to solve crimes. But what he witnesses in Bonaventure Cemetery leaves Nick stumped.When NickâÇÖs neighbor, Keisha, goes missing and is presumed dead, Nick is forced into an unlikely partnership with Jaz, a teen with a 'spiritual gift' that lets herá'know things about the dead'-or so she claims. As the pair work to uncover the facts, they need to rely on the word of 'Sistah Séance,' a Gullah woman on GeorgiaâÇÖs Sea islands, who seems able to 'bring up the dead.'áIn this mystery, Nick must prove that a young man falsely accused of murder is innocent. Problem is, the only eye witness is the victim . . . a ghost.This time Nick doesnâÇÖt have all the answers, but he asks the right questions.áAnd what he learns is worse than any lies a fake fortuneteller might pass off as truth.'A whip-smart middle grade mystery with a touch of paranormal and much-needed humor. In this stand-alone, realistic crime-scene drama a girl goes missing and her brother is wrongfully imprisoned. Only this time, NickâÇÖs brilliant wit and sleuthing skills are seriously tested when he is brought into a world of spiritualists, mediums and ghosts coming back from the dead-or so it seems. In the spirit of The Hardy Boys and Scooby Doo - âÇÖis it a ghost or not,âÇÖ and âÇÖthose meddling kidsâÇÖ - I highly recommend Medium Well Done and the whole series, especially for boys and reluctant readers.' - Kim Childress, Book Editor, GirlsâÇÖ Life MagazineRecent Reader Comments'We need more books like this!' - Alex'I loved it and the story was seamless and easy to understand, although I prefer it for the older kids!
