Swindle, #8
Written by Gordon Korman
Griffin and his friends do not want to be the elves in the town’s Holiday Spectacular. But when the very valuable Star of Prague goes missing, being elves sounds a whole lot better than being suspects. Together the group starts “Operation Starchaser” to find the real thief and clear their names. Korman does a great job of intertwining various stories to make things interesting and to throw you off the trail of the true bandit. And of course, their trusty Doberman, Luthor, gets involved and even helps save the day. A fun holiday read.
