The Legend of Creepy Hollow: Book Two. Available in paperback, ebook, and Kindle Unlimited now.
A weekend in New York State spells trouble for the kids when a vengeful ghost on horseback tears across the countryside under the light of the moon.
Noah’s got his hands full, although he doesn’t mind the freedom that a weekend at the Murphy’s apple orchard offers. He’s got farm chores to do and a geocache to locate—an extra credit assignment that might be his only chance at raising his failing history grade.
But when its GPS coordinates point toward a massive corn maze smack in the middle of a popular fall festival, the hunt becomes a lot more complicated than he’d imagined, especially when the gang learns of the vengeful nineteenth-century ghost rider haunting the fields.
And then, of course, there’s his tongue-tying crush on the Murphy’s thirteen-year-old granddaughter. Don’t even get him started on that.
Join this modern-day group of accidental sleuths as they unravel another heart-racing historical mystery in the Tales of the Lost & Found. Recommended for ages 9-12.
No graphic violence or language.
"The autumn setting and eerie feel contrast the peaceful nature of the farm with the threats that loom over them. The author skillfully weaves history within the plot teaching about the Harvest and Hunter’s Moon while revealing plot elements. Mystery, coming of age, detectives, and fear combine to entice middle grade readers to turn each page."
~Author Barbara Mojica
