From the Publisher

Child-detective Cam Jansen (a fearless girl with a photographic memory) faces a new challenge: Are the strange lights she and friend Eric spot really U.F.O.s, or is there another explanation? Christina Moore has done a great job narrating the Cam Jansen series, and this story is no exception. She gives Cam and Eric their own distinct and likable personalities; other incidental characters are as skillfully drawn. Moore’s straightforward reading creates a grounded story line onto which she projects a genuine atmosphere of suspense. Young sleuths will listen carefully, collecting clues that will lead to a satisfying answer. J.C.G. © AudioFile 2006, Portland, Maine
