- A boy detective is on the hunt for buried treasure in this young adult mystery from the beloved author of The House with a Clock in its Walls. Anthony Monday doesn&’t have many friends, and his home life is a wreck. But he does have Miss Eells, the librarian at the Hoosac Public Library, and he has an adventure waiting for him right around the corner. When Miss Eells gives Anthony a job at the library, he thinks he&’ll just be dusting shelves and filing books. Instead, he discovers a hidden clue leading to the treasure of eccentric millionaire Alpheus Winterborn. Miss Eells thinks the clues are a practical joke left by the odd, old Winterborn before he died. But if that&’s the case, then why do things start getting so scary so quickly? The closer they get to solving the mystery, the closer Winterborn&’s evil nephew Hugo Philpotts lurks in the shadows, waiting to snatch the treasure out of their hands. This first book in John Bellairs&’s Anthony Monday Mystery series will have young readers on the edge of their seats, desperate to race ahead to the story&’s final surprise.
