The Mother Diamond: A Fraidy Cat and Smarty Pants Adventure (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798993860602)

When eleven-year-old Freddy Carver's mother disappears, fear isn't his only enemy-the truth may be far more dangerous.

Known as Fraidy Cat, Freddy would rather avoid trouble altogether. But alongside his sharp-witted best friend, James "Smarty Pants" Shelley, he's drawn into a mystery involving cryptic clues, whispered legends, and a long-lost treasure called The Mother Diamond. Each discovery pulls the boys deeper into a puzzle that someone may be willing to protect at any cost.

As the line between myth and reality blurs, Freddy must face his fears to uncover the truth about his mother's disappearance. The Mother Diamond is a suspenseful middle-grade mystery filled with friendship, courage, and adventure-perfect for readers who love clever clues, high-stakes secrets, and stories where bravery is earned, not assumed.
