This kids’ mystery is set in 1906 and follows aspiring teen detective Fitz Morgan on a train ride from New York City to San Francisco. Mysterious poisonings lead to a counterfeit ring. Fitz is glad to make the acquaintance of Justine Pinkerton and has access to the Pinkerton mobile lab. Black and white line drawings and photographs by Nancy Hall Inc. give historical atmosphere. The author also includes tips for Junior Detectives interspersed throughout this episode of his “Crime Through Time” series.

A fun mystery. I liked the little detective blurbs and historical blurbs. I like that the authors note explains that not everything is historically accurate. I think my daughter, 9, will really enjoy it as well.

I read this book with the kids and we all enjoyed it. It's a classic mystery that even I didn't solve before the end. (4th grade and up)
