My Review

I’ve been wanting to read this series for a while and when I saw this introductory novella, I figured it was a good place to start.  I was right.  Although it takes place many years before the series starts, I immediately liked the characters.  

This story takes place at the high school prom of our amateur sleuth, Sally Muccio.  She gets thrown into the middle of a mystery and her sleuthing career begins.  

This looks like a series I’ll be addicted to in no time.  It looks as if I have much catching up to do since there are 14 books in the series.  I’m looking forward to reading more.
