This first installment of a new mystery series introduces Eckert House, a grand Victorian mansion-turned-museum. Readers also meet Dan, Peter, and Shelby, who seek to discover its hidden mystery.
Chris Auer of Savannah, GA, is a seasoned screenwriter and adapted The Legend of the Candy Cane for video. He has numerous scriptwriting credits, including More True Stories from Touched by an Angel with CBS. He was the creator-executive producer for the half-hour series Big Brother Jake from 1990 to 1994 and also worked for NBC's The Cosby Show.
The mystery had some intriguing aspects, and I loved the secret passageways in the old mansion. But the characters were not well developed, and the heavy-handed religious references felt contrived.
This book was thrill to read, I enjoyed how I was on the edge of my seat and managed to laugh at the hilarity of some parts. The character's no matter the age, showed origionality and comical whips from all angles. A very enjoyable read.
