The West Coast Murders

Roy MacGregor's twelfth book in The Screech Owls Series, West Coast Murders, may keep you up all night, sweating, while hiding under the covers . The Screech Owls hockey team was visiting the province of British Columbia for the first three on three hockey tournament, ever. But, unfortunately, when they headed out to sea to whale watch, their fun-filled trip turns into a horrible catastrophe of crimes and murders. The team encountered many horrifying and life -threatening things, including finding two shot bodies: one of a man and one of a dolphin. They also found that there were people trying to smuggle cocaine through their own tournament souvenir globes and souvenir hockey bags. With the souvenir hockey bags each team was given an extra for no reason. If you like mystery books that have very descriptive writing you will definitely find this book interesting. Roy, the author, brings you into the page with every word, and makes the book difficult to put down. I thought that the book had a lot of tension in it and I would definetly recomend it to someone, especially if they read the first eleven before the twelfth. It also be much easier to understand if you were between the ages of eight and twelve.

Exciting and thrilling

This great book and series will make you read til you fall asleep. It is so good you wouldn't even want to eat. Your head will be stuck in the book forever.
