Advance Praise

"I loved following Billy Fender and friends Lisa, Raffi, and Archie on their sleuthing adventures. Major Tom, Miss Applebee, Simone Wilkie, and Madame Toots were excellent additions to an intriguing cast of diverse west coast townsfolk. The entire town sparkles with life when friendship, determination, and inquisitive minds meet Sherlock Holmes logic and lore to solve Coyote Point's many mysteries. Loved the Fenderprise. And the maps and drawings were excellent bonus features!" Verified purchase - J. Read

"Positive youth book. In the vein of Blyton's Famous Five aimed at a younger audience. Friendship, family, constructive, instructive, good role modelling, and uplifting. A good read for 7-12 year olds or anyone young at heart looking for something light." Verified purchase - Peter Salomonsson
