Author Caroline Lawrence was in Carson City awhile back. Several of us  had 
the pleasure of meeting her. Sundance Books in Reno has ordered copies  of 
the book for their inventory. Christine Kelly at

Arianne--read it before passing it along  to a young friend, or your local middle school 
library.

there, read Caroline Lawrence's new book, _The  Case
