Good enough for the target audience. Somewhat stereotyped (what isn't, for this age?), but reasonably done story. The clues for the mystery were fairly laid and solved by the kids (age 12).

A simple mystery that reads fairly quickly. The kid detective storyline was a bit silly, but not totally over the top or far fetched, and the characters were likeable. One of the leads has asthma (which I don't know much about, so I can't really speak to the realism of that depiction), the ninja detective part comes from two of the leads being very passionate about martial arts, and there's a fat cat named Pumpkin. Small town mystery with small town stakes and a few red herrings.

Randi Rhodes is less than thrilled when her father moves the two of them from Brooklyn to sleepy small town Deer Creek, where they used to spend summers. She's also dismayed that he has arranged for May Ling to live with them and help around the house - Randi does NOT need a nanny. Unbeknownst to her father (she thinks), Randi is a practicing detective, and as soon as they arrive in Deer Creek she has a new mystery to solve: the town's 200-year-old time capsule has been stolen, and without it, the Founders' Day celebration can't happen, and if it doesn't, many in Deer Creek will lose their homes and businesses. Randi and her new friend Dario Cruz (DC for short) team up to solve the mystery, but the clock is ticking.

Fun and clever. The audio version was excellent, except for Pudge's voice - I think he was supposed to have a Boston accent.

"What's gotten into you?"
"Nothing that wasn't in me before!"

This book is about a crime fighting team the ninja detectives that solve problems, find the victim, and stop the bad guys. The ninja detectives are Randi Rhodes, Pudge Taylor, and Dario Cruz.They have been solving so many crimes that they are the top ninja detectives on Deer Creek, but now they are in New York solving one of the most high alert crime, but before that they went on a road trip to Brooklyn to see Randi's aunt. Across from the Aunt's house is a museum that has something worth a million dollars and it is Faberge eggs. Finally someone has stole the fifty Faberge eggs.

I think this book is good for kids who like mystery and action books. This give a high rate of mystery and action. This has insterseting ideas. This book tells us the readers that stealing and crimes are not good. Finally this book is excellent.
