WINNER 1996 Texas Lone Star Reading List

For fans of Gillian Flynn, Caroline Cooney, and R.L. Stine comes Shadowmaker from four-time Edgar Allen Poe Young Adult Mystery Award winner Joan Lowery Nixon.

“Nixon deftly weaves the ordinary difficulties of a new kid in school into a suspenseful mystery … [and her] characters are interestingly complicated.”—Booklist
