Maryellen's first mystery, The Finders-Keepers Rule, is a well-written novel set in Daytona Beach, Florida, Maryellen's hometown. As the back of the book explains, when Maryellen finds a barnacle-encrusted beach buried in the sand, she and her friend, Davy Fenstermacher, set out to discover the history of the treasure.
The book also features Maryellen's attempt to learn a complicated dance.
I enjoyed the multiple story lines and the description of life in Fifties Daytona Beach where kids could safely bike to the beach, dig for treasure and enjoy a hot dog.
