Welcome to Episode Nine of the August Island Society of Young Detectives.

Seven has forgiven Lucy, thank goodness, and with dumb boring school finally in the dust, the Young Detectives have no other obligations standing in their way to bring Mona home. 

But they’re stuck in a rut. Seven feels that if they rethink and revisit all the details they have collected so far, the keystone clue of the case will be revealed. 

As we charge ahead into chapters 41 thru 45, our four detectives will feel very close to all the mystery’s answers… but will we be able to see it? Is it staring right at us? Or are we alone on a cliff, trying to make out what we see in the distance? 

Let's stop wasting time... hit play!

Hi everyone in listening land. New episodes will be released every other week until our heroes solve the case. Why? Because I am still in the process of recording them and the summer season is ramping up and it's very busy at the bike shop... and... well... I fell behind a bit... But don't worry Episode 9 will drop on Thursday, May 29 and then Ep 10 and 11 will follow every two weeks after that. 

Thank you for your patience. 

HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND!!!!

SUMMER RULES!

To Lucy and Seven, it is clear that Mona must have been kidnapped by someone close to Cecilia … but why? With their list of suspects in hand, their quest for truth and justice begins.

I am your host, and the dude who discovered this mysterious book of unknown origin, Oosh Sinclair.

While I have yet to learn more about who wrote these pages, I am hoping we can all figure it out together as this story unfolds. 

I’m excited to read with you chapters 16-20… they are some of my favorites. We get to see Lucy and Seven verbally spar with the mean-spirited dinner-guest-suspect Mrs. Houston and the big topic at school on Monday morning is the heroic adventure of Lucy and Seven bringing down the tomato thieves.
