The Private Eye Five

by William Bontrager, HH-Pax (Illustrations), Heddrick McBride (With)

Donell and his friends are excited to see a famous basketball player, Mystic Bradley, but when the superstar's pair of shoes comes up missing, the kids are on the case! Donell and his team of detectives search the busy streets of Baltimore and race through alleyways while avoiding perils like an overzealous math teacher and a feisty little dog. With help from a friendly and wise hobo, and a street-smart and caring Boys and Girls Club owner, they learn what matters most, as they race against time to assist Mystic and help out a charity. Join the detectives while they learn life lessons, like paying attention to small details, recognizing each other's unique qualities, and learning what is really important in friendships, as they try to solve the case of Who Swiped the Sneakers?
