Wendy H. (donkeycheese) -
Nate Daniels gets into some trouble so his parents decide to send him off to his grandparents for the summer. Expecting a humdrum summer, without any action or fun, Nate's summer doesn't start off quite like he expected. His flight to his grandparents is detained and searched when it becomes apparent that a possible terrorist is onboard.
Nate is soon released to his grandparents but is a bit stymied when he finds a thumb drive in his pocket - a thumb drive he has never seen before. Add that to his confusion about the farm. It's a big mansion with it's own ghost and a mystery.
From there, the adventure really takes off. With the would-be terrorist looking for his flash drive, the steep underground railroad history at the farm and two new friends that Nate met on the plane, there's nothing boring about his summer. Posey does an excellent job of mixing history, adventure and suspense into a young adult book that will keep you thoroughly entertained. The plot is solid and the characters likable. Highly recommend!
