Book SynopsisTrade ReviewPraise for John Bellairs “I have just spent a long rainy weekend buried under a quilt, devouring salty peanuts and a stack of John Bellairs mysteries. It was heaven . . . Much like other mysteries, these short works of the imagination are designed and constructed with the fine storytelling craft of an adult master. . . . Bellairs moves the action at a furious clip. . . . [These] hair-raising adventures also excite readers because they involve believable and likable characters with whom we can empathize in moments of danger . . . An endearing detective team.” —Marilyn Stasio, The New York Times “Is there no end to the suspense John Bellairs can create?” —School Library Journal “There’s suspense and action aplenty. . . Perfect for the pre-Stephen King set.” —Booklist “Sophisticated notions on the nature of good and evil, nuanced storytelling, and expert world-building.” —AV Club

Open Road Media The Vampire's Photograph
Book SynopsisOliver’s life is no different from those of most middle school kids—except he sleeps in a coffin and drinks blood for breakfastOliver Nocturne lives a pretty normal life—he deals with bullies, has an obnoxious older brother, and generally feels misunderstood. But being a vampire presents another host of problems, especially when he feels—he knows—he’s not quite like everyone else. When Emalie, a human girl with a troubled past, takes a picture of him, Oliver ignores the rules that forbid him from interacting with humans and agrees to show her the darkest secrets of the Seattle underworld. But their quest will uncover more than vampire mythology—they will learn the terrible truth about Oliver’s past and his purpose. And for Emalie, this knowledge could come at a fatal price.Trade Review“The details help to fully realize the idea of parallel human and undead worlds, and the cliff-hanger ending promises more excitement.” —School Library Journal “The creepy details are abundantly supplied . . . and readers will relish the frisson of refrigerators full of flash-friend tarantulas and various blood types. . . . Fans of young vampires or those intrigued by Oliver’s friendship with Emalie may therefore look forward to more time in Oliver’s world.” —The Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books “This book is awesome.” —D Magazine
