    About this audiobook

    Mystery is in Herculeah Jones’ blood. How could it not be, with a father on the police force and a mother who’s a private eye? So when Herculeah notices a man hanging around the "Dead Oaks" mansion, she can’t resist doing some investigating of her own. Legend has it the old estate was the site of a murder, and now, it looks like there’s something even more nefarious going on.

    Can Herculeah crack the case before the mystery man closes in on her?
