The Mystery on Cobbett's Island

by Kathryn Kenny

Book 13 of the Trixie Belden series

Trixie Belden and her friends visit Cobbett’s Island, where a change of scenery quickly supplies a new mystery. Water, boats, unfamiliar residents, and island geography complicate the search for explanations when suspicious events begin accumulating. The Bob-Whites’ investigation depends on comparing local stories with what they can actually observe. Kathryn Kenny’s series entry blends vacation adventure and juvenile detection in an isolated setting where leaving the mainland does not mean leaving trouble behind.
