Super Max and the Mystery of Thornwood's Revenge
Super Max and the Mystery of Thornwood's Revenge | Susan Vaught
5 posts | 3 read | 4 to read
Its going to take more than a knack for electronics and a supercharged wheelchair for twelve-year-old Max to investigate a haunted mansion in Edgar Awardwinning author Susan Vaughts latest middle grade mystery. Max has always been a whiz with electronics (just take a look at her turbo-charged wheelchair). But when a hacker starts a slanderous Facebook page for her grandpa, Max isnt sure she has the skills to take him down. The messages grow increasingly sinister, and Max fears that this is more than just a bad joke. Heres the thing: Max has grown up in the shadow of Thornwood Manor, an abandoned mansion that is rumored to be haunted by its original owner, Hargrove Thornwood. It is said that his ghost may be biding his time until he can exact revenge on the town of Blue Creek. Why? Well, its complicated. To call him a jerk would be an understatement. When the hacking escalates, suddenly it looks to Max like this could really be Thornwoods Revenge. If it is, these messages are just the beginningand the town could be in danger.

This was a great middle grade book. Max is an impulsive, quick-tempered girl who likes modifying electrical gadgets, likes superheroes, & uses a wheelchair. She is being raised by her Grandpa, Toppy, who is the town's police chief, and when Max gets in trouble he makes her write essays about sappy movies on the Sentimental Flicks Channel. Wonderful characters and a good haunted-house-style mystery.
