Presents four stories for reluctant readers that feature a variety of mysteries.
Suitable for readers who may find traditional teen novels too daunting, this volume contains six easy-to-read short stories aimed at the reluctant or struggling reader. The stories are punchy and dramatic, and cover a variety of genres including science fiction, crime, romance, history and humour.
This captivating collection of stories contains four thrilling crime mysteries, each more perplexing than the last. A life hangs in the balance on the edge of a cliff in Gillian Philip's "Rockface;" a text message sent in error leads to a gruesome death in Alan Durant's "SMS Murder;" a seemingly simple case leads to unforeseen complications in Anne Rooney's "An Open and Shut Case;" and an innocent person is accused of a crime with terrifying consequences in David Belbin's "In a Hot Place."
