THE STORY

Spearmint Village is known for the many children roaming the streets. The population complains, but not many are as eager to adopt them as the Adelsons.

When children start disappearing, snatched from the streets in the dark, and unearthly cries are heard in the night, the people of Spearmint Village wish that the children were back.

But not many are willing to risk their lives in order to find them. However, when four young friends find a clue that could lead them to the disappearing children, they embark on a dangerous journey against time to recover the children and reveal the culprits.

A junior fiction novel for pre-teens and middle graders, full of mystery and suspense.
