Highly recommended

Louis Dunlp prefers the work of Raymond Chandler, specifically Phillip Marlowe, a tough private eye, to the studying Eleventh-grade English. Marlowe didn't worry -- Lou worries a lot and about everything. Daydreaming in English class results in the teacher's unwanted attention. The teacher moves him from the window seat to an empty seat on the second row. Unfortunately, tthe desk had belonged to Cathy McKenna. Cathy disappeared in November, and no one has used it since. Graffiti on the desk and classmate Jessie's suggestion lead to Lou investigating the missing student. Teaming up with Jessie, Lou follows the leads that result in more excitement than he bargained for.Author Glen Ebisch creates a challenging mystery in LOU DUNLOP: PRIVATE EYE. The myriad suspects and motives keep the pace moving as Lou learns the secrets behind his classmate's disappearance. Lou himself is a fascinating character as his alter ego encourages or criticizes his actions. Emotionally vulnerable and filled with self-doubt, most teens will identify with him as they find him both humorous and sensitive. An excellent read, LOU DUNLOP: PRIVATE EYE is highly recommended.
