About the Author

Ron Roy is the author of dozens of books, including the popular A to Z Mysteries, Calendar Mysteries, and Capital Mysteries series. When not working on a new book, Ron likes to teach tricks to his dog Pal, play poker with friends, travel, and read thrilling mystery books. Visit Ron online at RonRoy.com.

Timothy Bush was born in Pittsburgh, PA. His father's work in the steel industry took his family from Pittsburgh to Chicago to Youngstown, Ohio, before eventually returning to Pittsburgh, where Timothy finished high school. Timothy attended the University of Dallas on an academic scholarship. He spent the fall semester of his sophomore year in the University's Rome program. After graduating cum laude with a BA in English, Timothy spent two years in Vienna, Austria, on a Fulbright Teaching Assistantship. He traveled extensively while in Europe, especially in Italy, Hungary, and Turkey, and spent a summer in the Greek Islands. He supported himself as a teacher, street singer, and lyricist for Bulgarian rock bands. Timothy is a self-taught artist, and his first book, James in the House of Aunt Prudence, grew from a portfolio showing in the summer of 1990. Since then, he has written and illustrated two other children's books, Three at Sea and Grunt! The Primitive Cave Boy. Tim lives in New York City.

My daughter is obsessed with these books. They’re below her reading level as a 4th grade who’s reading high school level books. But she loves them and the mystery.

My 7 year old really enjoyed this book. It was recommended as her summer reading, entering 2nd grade. She was able to read it within a day. Seemed to keep her attention throughout.

My husband reads Ron Roy's books with our children, and they always enjoy the stories. This one has a few inaccurate details in the plot; not a big deal, but you might as well get the details accurate, right? They all enjoyed the story though!

Bought the whole series for my kindergarten reader. He likes the characters, the mysteries and the fact that it all happens in our DC area. He reads 1 a day
then reads them again and again. He also likes the Andrew Lost series (more scientific).

　KCとママ・大統領は、自然史博物館前の公園で7月4日の花火大会を楽しみました。もちろんホワイトハウスに招かれて休日を過ごしているマーシャルも一緒です。ホワイトハウスまで歩いて帰る途中、KCはFBIのビルの窓からロケットらしきものが発射されたのを目撃しました。2人の調査が始まります。今回はちょっと凝ったトリックが楽しめます。
