She will risk her life to solve a mystery not because it involves friends or family, just because she it is what she loves to do. Reading these books forces me to think outside of the box in order to solve the mystery before the end of the book. I always feel like my brain is being worked, and I love knowing that at any second something could happen that will totally change the outcome. I hope that Carolyn Keene, the author of this series, continues to write great mystery novels for people to enjoy through many generations.

the town<br /><br />Have you ever killed a man?<br /><br />Got scared and ran?<br /><br />Felt the guilt and pain?<br /><br />While you were still sane?<br /><br />Compassion to them is very rare<br /><br />No one is ever dealt with fair<br /><br />So go on and sentence this guilt ridden man<br /><br />His pain will have ended, and yours has began<div class="blogger-post-footer">DPL Teens

cold haunted places<br /><br />Forgotten horrors, bony faces<br /><br />Corpses n' blood, calling breezes<br /><br />Mangled bones, choking wheezes<br /><br />Creaking, crawling, howls and cries<br /><br />Ghosts, skeletons, everything dies<br /><br />Blood stains, burns, fabric torn<br /><br />Every room looks forlorn<br /><br />Gloomy and depressing this dark house stands<br /><br />The broken wood, splinters reaching out like hands<br /><br />It needs repairs and gleeful fixes<br /><br />Furniture, flowers and colorful mixes<br /><br />This house is not a house but a broken soul<br /><br />Whose happy life has taken a terrible toll<br /><br />No one there to help or reach out<br /><br />Wandering lonely, out n' about<br /><br />People pass on by without a care<br /><br />No one helps or even stops to stare<br /><br />This house will break down soon<br /><br />Collapsing under the light of the moon<br /><br />It crashes and crumbles<br /><br />Creaks and rumbles<br /><br />The soul is in pieces, cold and dead<br /><br />This was what was always in dread<br /><br />Too fragile, too weak, to stay upright<br /><br />Others to afraid to shed their light<br /><br />Memory of the fallen rack there minds<br /><br />The remembrance of death really binds<br /><br />Help was scarce and left alone<br /><br />Now all that's left is skin and bone<br /><br />So many souls break down and die<br /><br />Because the others were way to shy<br /><br />Fallen souls lay unmoving<br /><br />Death and pain, lay proving<br /><br />We cannot be alone to despair<br /><br />And finally go beyond repair<br /><br />A broken soul, a broken house<br /><br />Whose cries were as loud as a mouse<br /><br />No one to hear and no one to care<br /><br />Now the guilty has pain to bear<div
