Milo just wanted a quiet Christmas with his mom and dad. So, he was understandably upset the first time the bell rang to mark the arrival of a guest. And he was more so when the other guests arrived one by one. But what once was an unpleasant interruption of his Christmas vacation because something more, because each guest was hiding a secret... A secret that Milo and his newfound partner Meddy were going to discover.

This is the second time I've read this book. I was a lot younger the first time, but I still enjoyed this very much. Greenglass House is a book I will return to over and over again. The target audience is a bit younger, but this book has everything! A wonderful fictional town, an inn on a hill, an interesting main character, an adventure, and a mystery. As one review put it, "'Highly recommended to anyone who loves stories about stories, kid detectives, or role-playing games.' - GeekDad.com"
Thank you Kate Milford!
