“A great and humorous kids/young teen story with plenty of twists and tension.” Entrada Publishing

‘Your On the Fly Private Eye’ father and daughter private detective team, Drew and Krista Winnette, are back to solve the case of a missing trucker. It’s their first paid gig, and they’re thrilled to finally be able to call themselves professionals.
