A group of kids awaits a book signing with their favorite mystery author, Wallis Wallace. But the author never shows, and the kids find it strange. As they follow clues, they think Wallis Wallace has been kidnapped.
I like this book because it's pure kid imagination. It's what kids wish would happen. Who didn't want to be part of a mystery crew like on Scooby Doo or this A - Z Mysteries crew? The start to this series is imaginative, fun and keeps you interested.

Dirk writes to his favorite author, mystery writer Wallis Wallace, and invites him to visit Green Lawn. Wonder or Wonders. Wallace says yes! In fact, the famous writer says that the only way he won't come is if he's kidnapped. But when the big day comes. Wallis Wallace is nowhere to be found. The police think he just missed his plane, but Dink knows better. It's up to Dink and his two best friends, Josh and Ruth Rose, to find Wallace- before it's too late!
