The Supernatural Files of Cj Delaney -- Carol Williams, Hardcover

Possessed dogs, missing livestock, cloaked figures . . . CJ Delaney's summer vacation just got really weird.

When a boring old skatepark opening becomes the scene of a something truly strange, CJ Delaney can't believe her luck. This is just the kind of big story she's dreamed of breaking for the town's local paper.

With best friend Parker in tow, CJ is determined to get to the bottom of everything and save the town from evil. Isn't this what summer vacation is for? But when all answers point to someone close, CJ stands not only to lose her byline but the scariest thing of all--the people and pet she loves.

With a strong, snappy voice and a warm sense of humor, The Supernatural Files of CJ Delaney is a fast-paced middle grade mystery (with just the right amount of hair-raising thrills) that begs to be read cover-to-cover in one sitting. This debut from Carol Williams shines with love for its characters, college-town setting, and belief in the power of the written word.
