| Publisher Description: Mystery for Ages 10 and Up A YOUNG MAN IS GONE is the first novel in the Double-Twins Mystery Series, featuring two sets of boy-girl twins: Mark and Mandy Cousineau from Ohio, and Alex and Aggie Burke from North Dakota. High school junior Bobby Swenson had the world at his feet in 1964: handsome and popular, he was also a varsity letterman and first-rate student. When Bobby fell to his death that year at the Foxtrot-Zero military construction site, the citizens of Grand Forks, North Dakota, reacted as though they had lost their very own James Dean. But was his death an accident, or was it murder? Working together, the two sets of twins sleuth through leads that challenge their friendship and force them to confront their fears. ******* "What kid (boy or girl) wouldn't be fascinated by a story that unfolds in an underground Launch Control Center, and a haunted one at that Kijinski is a former missile officer, so his specific details about the deserted capsule-its furnishings, technological equipment, and what it feels like to be deep underground-add authority and intrigue to the story." --Emily Rhoads Johnson, author of WRITE ME IF YOU DARE and other books for young readers |
