About this book
When a mysterious couple moves in next door right before Thanksgiving, Bradley, Brian, Nate, and Lucy spot strange clues—a tall fence, odd parts, a backyard tent, and a big guard dog—and decide to investigate. The younger siblings of the A to Z Mysteries crew use teamwork and sharp eyes to crack the case without anything too scary. Fast-paced chapters, gentle suspense, and plenty of humor make this a great pick for newly independent readers. Perfect for kids who enjoy light mysteries and holiday-themed adventures.
Setting: a suburban neighborhood around Thanksgiving
