Wake Up, It's Midnight!
A Naitabal Mystery
Charlotte stood, hand poised on the doorknob, and took a deep breath. The ghostly sound of typing stopped abruptly, as suddenly as it had begun. She threw open the door. A piece of paper in the old typewriter fluttered in the moving air. But there was no one there.
The Mysterious Motionless Mr Maynard hasn't moved for two days. Beneath that hairless head and ferocious scowl, his evil brain is plotting — but plotting what?A secret drawer, an empty house at midnight, a missing manuscript, spying, cheating — and a mysterious lady in black — are just a few of the obstacles the Naitabals must overcome to solve the mystery. Wake up, it's midnight! "The type of story that would appeal to juniors who like reading about children outwitting the adults... who dream of having a tree-house and outdoor adventures, and who like codes and secret letters. It is all very entertaining..." |
