About

Xena and Xander have been looking forward to their vacation in the peaceful country village of Blackslope. But, when a huge monster begins to terrorize the town, the young detectives are faced with a mystery that seems impossible to solve. Sherlock Holmes, Xena and Xander's famous ancestor, investigated the case of a horrible beast in Blackslope, but that was nearly a hundred years ago. It couldn't be the same creature after all this time-could it?

Reviews

"Barrett plunges right into the action from the first sentence, giving fans of classic mysteries exactly what they want: thrills, chills, a plethora of suspects and plenty of red herrings… A fun series continues unabated."
Kirkus Reviews
"Solid detective work, and a zippy pace make this a nice choice."
Booklist
"Barrett throws in enough red herrings as well as solid clues to keep ardent fans of the genre turning the pages until the surprise denouement… Fans of Ron Roy's popular "A to Z Mysteries" series (Random) will delight in graduating to this series."
