A reporter on the trail of a vampire mystery

Fourteen-year-old Nick Caden investigates paranormal reports for The Cool Ghoul Gazette, and his latest assignment takes him to Transylvania, North Carolina, to examine a murder marked by fangs, bite marks, and a stake through the heart. The supernatural clues set up a classic detection question: are vampires really involved, or is there another explanation? The book combines a young investigator’s reporting work with a murder mystery and apparent undead phenomena, placing the case within a middle-grade adventure framework.

Book overview

★ Purple Dragonfly Award Winner for Middle Grade Fiction ★ First published by Zonderkidz

 

The good news is, vampires aren't real. The bad news is...you can't believe the news.

 

Nick Caden is a normal fourteen-year-old kid with a "supernatural" knack for finding trouble, ghosts, vampires, and all sorts of undead-or so it seems.

 

After solving the ghost story murder at Deadwood Canyon, Nick lands a job as a roving reporter for The Cool Ghoul Gazette, a website on paranormal or supernatural disturbances. When the editor sends Nick to investigate a murder in Transylvania, North Carolina, the young super sleuth finds a corpse with fangs, bite marks and a stake driven through the heart. If Nick proves vampires are real, his job as an investigative journalist is set for life! But once he begins to peel back the clues Nick finds his new job is not only scary and dangerous but about to suck the life out of him.

 

This charming middle-grade mystery blends classic whodunits with Scooby-Doo, Hardy Boys, and Nancy Drew-style mystery adventures.
