(2) 4-6 Illustrated by Hudson Talbott. In 1587, about a hundred men, women, and children left England to colonize Roanoke Island, off the coast of what is now North Carolina. When their governor returned from a trip to England for supplies, he found the colony abandoned. Talbott's delicate spot-art portraits give each player in this historical mystery a face, and Fritz attaches distinctive personalities to those images. Bib., ind.
