By Kristi HollFading Tracks. Lonely and a long way from her Iowa home, twelve-year-old Jeri McKane reacts to boarding school the way most middle schoolers would. Even with close friends, she wonders whether her scholarship to prestigious Landmark School was worth it. Shes tempted to give up when her Mom cant make parents weekend, and the school bus carrying her roommate, Rosa, disappears. But this reporter for the sixth-grade newspaper has an eye like Nancy Drew and more faith and courage than she realizes. Jeri solves the mysteryand makes landmark decisions to trust God and his Word through circumstances and feelings that dont make sense.
Secrets for Sale. When Jeri McKane is blamed by her best friend Rosa for using a secret against her, Jeris world is turned upside down. Unless the real blackmailer is found, Rosa could be expelled from Landmark School and her starring role in Cinderella given to a snobbish seventh grader. Worse still, Jeri could lose her best friends trust just when things with her own absentee father are heating up. Why does everything have to be so complicatedand where is God when you need him? Middle schoolers will identify with Jeri and her friends as they solve this mystery and learn valuable lessons about truth-telling, faith, hope, and love.
