The Mystery of the Martello Tower

It’s the first day of summer vacation and Hazel’s 12th birthday is next week, but things aren’t looking good. First, she has that dream, the one that’s always followed by bad news, as her annoyingly brilliant nine-year-old brother Ned points out. Next there’s the disappearance of Colin, their art- ealer father—their only living relative. Then there are those e-mails on Colin’s computer—one about an Interpol investigation and another about a family reunion. Before Hazel and Ned can investigate, their summer plunges into chaos: a valuable painting goes missing, their apartment is burgled, the babysitter leaves town, their father is arrested in Istanbul and two menacing thugs begin turning up everywhere.
Escaping to an island for a reunion with family they never knew they had sounds perfect. But there’s no escaping this adventure, and even as Hazel and Ned gain help from new family and friends, they learn of a second, darker secret they must uncover. Only by solving both mysteries can they bring their father home.
Red-haired Hazel Frump is a heroine with a wicked crossover dribble and a brother with near-lethal chemistry skills. The beginning of a series that has echoes of the best of Enid Blyton and is written in the tradition of stories where children rule the day (and adults conveniently fade away), The Mystery of the Martello Tower is habit-forming reading.

Hazel Frump is turning 12 next week. A birthday, the start of summer vacation and a family reunion on an island in eastern Lake Ontario—what could be more exciting? Hazel has more on her mind, though. Her father, an art dealer, has gone missing, leaving behind two e-mails: one about an Interpol investigation and the other about the family reunion. It isn’t clear which is more mysterious. Why is Hazel’s dad mixed up with Interpol, and what’s with this family reunion? As far as she and her irritatingly brilliant nine-year-old brother Ned know, they have no living relatives besides their father.    Before Hazel and Ned can investigate, a valuable painting is stolen, their apartment is ransacked and two menacing thugs seem to be following them everywhere. The siblings escape to the family reunion, but the mystery follows them, revealing a second, darker secret that they must unravel. With the help of cousins they never knew they had, Hazel and Ned must solve both mysteries to bring their father home.
