Middle-Grade Mystery: Wholesome Fun, Sun & Surf Author Cheryl Linn Martin releases Pineapples In Peril, the first of her 3-book middle grade mystery series The Hawaiian Island Detective Club this month (October 2012) from Comfort Publishing.

I have long followed Cheryl’s writing and path to publication, so it is a special treat to see and read this book as a published work. Though the HIDC series is aimed at middle-grade & young teens, it is a refreshing, interesting read for all ages, woven with suspense, fun, friends, family, and a wholesome Christian worldview.

While solving their first real case, long-time friends Leilani, Maile and Sam deal with typical eighth-grade frustrations and fears, the ups and downs of family life, and the awesome adventure of growing up in a tropical paradise. The story offers fun, interesting facts about Hawaii young readers will soak up right along with the sun and surf.

A note to parents, grandparents and teachers - this book would make a great Christmas gift for your 8-13 yr old readers.

About Pineapples In Peril:
Thirteen-year-old Leilani Akamai and her two best friends, Maile and Sam, have been the only official members of The Hawaiian Island Detective Club for years. Until this summer, they've only been solving pretend mysteries. But when vandalism starts taking place in the pineapple fields near their homes, they finally get their chance to solve a real crime. Unless Kimo, Leilani’s annoying ten-year-old brother, ruins everything . . .  And then there’s Maile’s 16-year-old brother, the love of Leilani’s life . . .
