It's an absolute pleasure to let you all know about the Lisa Orchard's latest release "The Super Spies and the Pied Piper"My daughter reads A LOT, and I find it hard to keep up finding new books for her. I hesitantly gave her Lisa's first book a few weeks back and it was only a day or two later that she excitedly told me all about it and how much she had loved it!
Then I gave her book number two! Same result.
Imagine her joy when I told her book number three has been released!
According to my girl - it's a must read series! So please do check them out.
PS - And don't forget to check out Lisa's very popular guest blog on Four Foxes, One Hound as well :-)
Sarah Cole and her sister Lacey are at
it once again when they learn their missing parents’ cell phone has been traced
to Alden, Michigan. When the FBI declines to continue the investigation, Sarah
takes matters into her own hands. She calls upon the Super Spies and they delve
into the situation. Suddenly, the teens find themselves immersed in small town
intrigue and mystery involving a menacing stranger, who Sarah dubs “The
Stalker." But when Sarah learns he’s connected to her parents’ disappearance,
she’s determined to find out what that connection is. The Super Spies embark on
a journey that leads them into a web of corporate corruption at its highest
level that leaves innocent victims in its wake. Can they find the proof they
need to stop the greedy corporation before it’s too late?
Chapter
One
“What do you mean you lost them?” Sarah
Cole fidgeted as she waited for Agent Gray to answer. I can’t believe it! He
lost the only clue to our parents’ location. What is wrong with this picture?
Agitated, Sarah shifted in her seat and chewed on her lip. She was
uncomfortable in the folding chair and rearranged her petite frame so she
wouldn’t feel the cold metal against her bare legs. Shivering, she glanced
around the all-too-familiar room.
The gray cement block walls no longer
gave her that creepy, closed-in feeling she’d used to get when she first came
to the interrogation rooms. She remembered the first time she’d been in that
tiny space. It had been the day she’d discovered the Cat Lady’s dead body.
Sarah shuddered at the memory and then smiled when she remembered forming the
Super Spies and bringing the Cat Lady Killer to justice. Glancing around the
room again, she realized she’d been in this room quite a bit these last few
weeks, not only during the Cat Lady investigation, but the High School Bomber
investigation as well. Shivering again, Sarah rubbed her arms but she really
wasn’t cold. Her mind filled with the image of the bomber the Super Spies had
helped apprehend just a week earlier.
Wow! Was it just last week?
She tugged at a lock of her honey
colored hair, then brushed it away with an impatient hand. She sighed and
glanced at her younger sister. Lacey sat beside her with her legs crossed,
jiggling her foot at such a rapid rate it seemed like her whole body was
electrified. She caught Sarah’s eye and for a moment her eyes glittered like
emeralds before she shifted her gaze to Aunt June, who had placed her hand on
Lacey’s leg in what appeared to be an attempt to quiet her. Sarah shifted in
her chair and sighed again. Are we ever going to find Mom and Dad?
A commotion out in the hall drew
everyone’s attention. Sarah leaned forward
and craned her neck to see what was
happening.
“Chief, we’ve got an OD!” An officer
yelled.
“What?” Chief Johnson yelled as he
rushed by. “An OD on what? Give me the details.”
“The parents found their son unconscious
in his room this morning, and an empty bottle of prescription medication on his
bedside table.”
“What was it?” Chief Johnson asked.
“It’s Myodine.”
“Who makes it?”
“Ah… Piper Drugs.”
“Call Poison Control with the name and
manufacturer and ask them what to do about an overdose. Instruct the parents to
get their son to the hospital pronto,” Chief Johnson ordered.
“They’ve brought him here.”
“What?” Chief Johnson exclaimed.
The sound of policemen rushing through
the hall pulled Sarah and her sister out of their seats. They hurried to the
door, unable to stifle their curiosity. Peering down the corridor, Sarah caught
a glimpse of a young man sagging between two officers as they desperately tried
to keep him on his feet. One officer gently slapped his face while the other
officers held him up. The young man blinked and then gagged, puking on the
officer in front of him.
The rancid stench of fresh vomit filled
the air. While plugging her nose, Sarah ducked back inside the interrogation
room, followed by her sister. Sarah closed the door, hoping it would keep the
smell from penetrating the room.
“Did you hear that, Lace? Piper Drugs!
That’s the company Dad works for,” Sarah whispered in her sister’s ear before
proceeding back to her seat.
Lacey opened her mouth to speak, but
closed it when Agent Gray cleared his
throat and motioned for them to sit
down.
He continued his conversation as if they
hadn’t been interrupted. We were on our way to the location of the ping… but
before we got there it disappeared.”
“So, what does that mean? Did you find
our parents or what?” Sarah blurted out as she sat down. She stared into Agent
Gray’s icy blue eyes, trying to read his mind.
