The Mysterious Stranger

by Andrew Cunningham

Arthur "Artie" MacArthur is a tenacious twelve-year-old with good detective instincts, somewhat questionable judgment, and two very good friends: Jenny Adams-tofu-eating and quick-witted, with a large dose of common sense and a sarcastic wit; and Sam Franklin-bologna-eating, sports-loving, mystery-hating, but always there in a pinch. From Artie and Sam's outrageous sandwich-making contests (the sight and smell of which makes Jenny nauseous), to the danger that lurks around every corner once Artie and his friends decide to solve a case, the humor and excitement is nonstop.

In The Mysterious Stranger a burglar is on the loose in the small town of Plainville, and Artie is determined to crack the case When he runs into an odd, dangerous-looking stranger in town, Artie is convinced the man is up to no good. Lacking any proof, Artie tails him, enlisting the help of his friends Jenny and Sam. But is the scary stranger the burglar the police are looking for, or has Artie found himself in a mess of trouble?
