4-6Friday Barnes Mysteries series.
Illustrated by
Phil Gosier.
Book four in this humorous mystery series picks right up following Big Trouble, with sleuth Friday deported to Switzerland and untangling various immigration snafus. She returns to save frenemy Ian from scandal and determine who is pranking the entire boarding school. Friday's quirky brain remains sharp in this hilarious romp, and the black-and-white cartoon illustrations continue to accentuate the caper's lighter side.
