A middle grade/young adult mystery in the vein of the Hardy Boys/Nancy Drew mysteries.
The sleepy little town of Blossom Gulch lies along the shore of Tenmile Slough on the southern Oregon coast. It's one of those towns where not much unusual goes on most days.
That changes when four local teenagers find a man's body floating in the slough's tranquil water!
* Who is he?
* Where's he from?
* Is it an accidental drowning...or is it murder?
For the next few weeks the teenagers, and the town, are are caught up in trying to find the answers to these questions and more.
The quest leads them the length of Tenmile Slough and back again, into the forest above the Stalcup logging camp on Beaver Hill, and into the darkness of the Black Diamond Coal Mine.
Along the way they find mystery, deceit, robbery, and murder and it comes to a close on the shore of Tenmile Slough less than a half mile from where it all started.
The second book in the Megan Martin series takes Megan, her best friend May, and now the nosy neighbor girl, Brianna, on adventures through a haunted house.
