Synopses & Reviews
Laughs, ghosts, and a lip-gloss-loving teen sleuth!Sherry (short for Sherlock) Holmes Baldwin is spending spring break in California with her best friend, Junie. She cant wait to hang out in the sun, hit the mall, and spend time with cutie-pie Josh.
Then . . . a freaky change of plans. Sherrys mom, a cop killed in the line of duty, contacts her. Not only is she a ghost, shes a ghost in danger of flunking out of the Academy of Spirits, and she needs Sherrys help. Unless she solves an important mystery in San Diego, shell be banished to an afterlife for ghost failures!
If Sherry wants to be a normal seventh grader (as in, one who doesnt communicate with ghosts), she cant tell anybody about her mom—or what she has to do. Not her brother, not Junie, and especially not Josh. Its up to Sherry alone to save the day. Except . . . she so doesnt do mysteries.
Synopsis
SO HERE I am spending spring break in California with my best friend, Junie. Our chaperone is a teenager, like us. And soon I'll get to hang out with the coolest, cutest boy in the Southwest. Life is so good.
Except I should tell you that I'm not actually in San Diego for fun. Even though I'm a normal person who likes normal stuff--friends, clothes, the mall--I'm supposed to be solving a mystery, one that involves a rhino heist and a crazy chef. And I have to do it because my supercop mom is counting on me. Did I mention she's a ghost? A ghost who can make
contact with only one person. Me, Sherry Holmes Baldwin. My mom is flunking out of the Academy of Spirits, and if I don't help her, she'll be banished to an afterlife for ghost failures.
But . . . I so don't do mysteries.
