Edición de la obra The Hooks files III

"Paul Boyce weaves his fictional mysteries into the fabric of Great Depression era America, a time so reminiscent of his own childhood. Follow along as retired civil engineer Elias Hooks and his protégés, eleven-year-old cousins, Jessica Sinclair and Billy Coupes, call on their wide-ranging investigative talent to recover buried wealth, trace a lost family connection, expose a troubling case of embezzlement, and correct the error of an unjustified lawsuit.
