She washed ashore in a hurricane eleven years ago, and she's been making waves ever since. Although Mo hopes someday to find her upstream mother, she's found a home with the Colonel--a café owner with a forgotten past of his own--and Miss Lana, the fabulous café hostess. She will protect those she loves with every bit of her strong will and tough attitude. So when a lawman comes to town asking about a murder, Mo and her best friend, Dale Earnhardt Johnson III, set out to uncover the truth in hopes of saving the only family Mo has ever known. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLook for all the Mo \u0026amp; Dale Mysteries: \u003ci\u003eThe Ghosts of Tupelo Landing\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Odds of Getting\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cb\u003eA Newbery Honor Book\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eAn ALA Notable Book\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eA Best Book of the Year:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003e Newsday\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eWall Street Journal\u003c\/i\u003e, James Patterson's Read Kiddo Read List, \u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eBookpage\u003c\/i\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eAn Edgar Award Nominee\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eAn E.B.
