It seemed like it would be another quiet, summer morning of fishing for 11-year old Charlie, her older brother, Finn, and his best friend, Tyler. Their friendly lakeside town in west Michigan was usually peaceful and a bit boring during summer vacation for these three mystery-loving middle schoolers. Little did they know, they were about to stumble upon a thrilling treasure hunt with tricky clues and a sinister thief who is determined to beat them each step of the way. Join these three amateur detectives for a small town Michigan mystery with twists and turns that will keep you guessing.
Introduce yourself and tell me about what you do.
My name is Dawn Reed and I currently am a stay at home mom. I have my doctorate in optometry and practiced for several years before staying home with my kids, whom are now 12 and 14.
Tell me more about your journey as an author, including the writing process.
I have always loved reading and writing, but this is the first book I have written. I was inspired by my daughter’s love for mystery books, and our difficulty in finding enough stories for her to read. I started thinking that it would be fun to create a series of mystery stories, based in west Michigan, where we live. I began developing the main characters for weeks before I chose the story line. I would jot down notes about their appearance, personality, character traits, etc. Then I dove into my mystery plot. I really just had fun, creating details, twists and turns as I went.
Story (that you want to highlight)
This story follows eleven-year old Charlie, along with her older brother Finn and his best friend Tyler, as they solve a local mystery in their west Michigan town. They embark on an adventure of solving clues while a sinister thief works to beat them each step of the way. There are plenty of laughs and ventures along the way.
