INTERMEDIATE FICTION
(4) 4-6 Ten-year-old Leo Fillmore lives in the basement of the Whippet Hotel with his father, the building's maintenance man. When the duck-obsessed hotel owner disappears, Leo takes it upon himself to find the man before the hotel falls into the wrong hands. The plot is action-filled but convoluted, with an ending that sets up another volume.
