Horn Book

The protagonists (based on the author's children and grandchildren) and their friends solve mysteries set in different historic locations. The plots are often preposterous (in one story the kids traipse unescorted through the private quarters of the White House looking for terrorists), and the characters sound less like real kids than like tour guides dispensing background information. Dull black-and-white photos make the books look tacky. Glos. [Review covers these Carole Marsh Mysteries titles: The Mystery of Blackbeard the Pirate, The Mystery of Kill Devil Hills, The Mystery of the Alamo Ghost, and The White House Christmas Mystery.]
