Great reading for boys

Our grandson read the book and said it was awesome. He loved the way it was written. In fact, it was hard for him to put down and do something else he was so in to it. After finishing this one, he couldn't wait to start on another mystery by the same author.

Cover Up: Mystery at the Super Bowl is the last part of a trilogy. The book is about two teen reporters who have solved two huge sports mysteries, a kidnapping at the U.S. Open and blackmailing at the Final Four. The main characters are Stevie Thomas and Susan Carol Anderson; they are both 14 years old and appear on the USTV kids' sports report, so they are pretty much celebrities at their schools. Stevie and Susan Carol get invited to the Super Bowl, but then Stevie gets fired from USTV for no reason. But Stevie's mentor, who writes for the Washington Herald, gets him credentials to see the Baltimore Ravens and the Los Angeles Dreams play in the Super Bowl. Stevie Thomas and Susan Carol solve mysteries with each other and make a great team just like Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson. One of their mysteries begins when Susan Carol was at a party one night, and a drunk guy reveals information that he was a doctor for the Dreams, and the Los Angeles' offensive linemen were all taking steroids. Stevie Thomas and Susan Carol once again investigate a huge sports mystery, but this time they're not working together. Will Stevie and Susan Carol solve the mystery? Will the offensive linemen come clean? Is the doctor a bad guy? You'll have to read the book and answer those questions yourself.
