The Vanishing of Katharina Linden

The Vanishing of Katharina Linden (Hardcover)

By Helen Grant

ISBN-13: 9780385344173
Availability: Special Order - Subject to Availability
Published: Delacorte Press, 8/2010
Other Editions of this Title
Part mystery, part coming-of-age tale, with a large dose of German folklore and a couple of ultra-suspenseful scenes, this book is hard to classify but easy to enjoy!  The 11-year old narrator, Pia, is spunky, perceptive, and just plain fun to read about.  Plus, you'll feel like you're visiting small-town Bavaria - complete with requisite ghosts, of course!

By Susan Fletcher

Availability: Special Order - Subject to Availability

Other Editions of this Title
I was a big fan of Fletcher's Dragon's Milk books as a kid, so I was pleased to see she'd return to them.  The books can be read in any order - this one is set in the near future, and it's full of adventure, close escapes, and one super-adorable baby dragon!  Flether is an Oregon author, and much of the story is set in Eugene, so Oregon readers will enjoy recognizing the locales.

Recently I had a free day, so I sat down with this book...and next thing I knew, it was evening, and I was on the last page!  Charles' Todd's mysteries are always great, and this start to a new series doesn't disappoint.  As always, the authors evoke an atmospheric World War I setting and keep you  guessing till the very end!
