Customer Reviews

yet again...good

I read this book a while ago, but I still remember how good it was. Though you can easily read it in two days or less, it is more of a novel than part of a mystery series. It's good!!!! Read it!!!!

A lot of heart for a little mystery

GRAVE SHADOWS is book #5 in the Red Rocks Mystery Series put out by Jerry B. Jenkins and Chris Fabry, both Christian kid's fiction heavyweights. Installment five follows more the adventures of Bryce and Ashley Timberline, twins living in Colorado with their mom, brother, step-sister, and step-dad. And everywhere they turn, it seems like another mystery is poking up, itching to be solved. This time around, Bryce's best friend Jeff is dying of cancer. While Jeff and Bryce attempt a 200-mile bike ride for cancer research, Jeff's huge collection of sports memorabilia and autographed items slowly goes missing. Jeff's parents ask the Timberlines to help solve the mystery, and at the same time, Ashley's friend Hayley's cousin goes missing as well. Ashley's working double-time to solve both mysteries, and Bryce is pedaling double time to keep up with the rest of the pack of bikers. GRAVE SHADOWS was well-plotted, yet a little disappointing when one of the mysteries is solved. Points are also somewhat sad, especially in scenes surrounding Jeff and Bryce. I didn't find this book to be quite as exciting as the sixth installment, PHANTOM WRITER, but nevertheless, #5 is fun and VERY QUICKLY read. Another great book for the shelf.
