About the book

Houston, We Have a Problem

Fifteen-year-old Crystal O’Mally expects an ordinary summer break until she is kidnapped and then found less than an hour later, only a few blocks from where she disappeared. With the police—and Crystal herself—short on clues, she turns her attention to helping her mother and younger sister Emma preserve the town’s oldest hotel. The project soon attracts trouble: equipment vanishes, scaffolding is destroyed, and vicious rumors spread through town. Between an aggravating councilman, a woman who keeps disappearing, a long-dead bride, and counterfeit money appearing around town, Crystal begins to wonder whether the hotel’s troubled past has returned to haunt them.
