Waiting on Wednesday

You've Got Blackmail by Rachel Wright
Release Date: April 2, 2009


Lozzie Cracknell is a girl on the edge. Her parents have recently separated; she forgot to mail the invitations to her mum’s super-important client party; the school bully is out to get her following an unfortunate e-mail incident involving Photoshop and a picture of a horse’s behind; and now it looks like Mum might be dating her English teacher, the utterly loathsome Mr. Hilary Barnett.

Just when she’s got about as much stress as she can handle, Lozzie and her best mate Dex stumble upon a tantalizing mystery—it seems Mr. Barnett is being blackmailed. But who on earth would blackmail a bore like him, and why? As they delve deeper into the mystery, questions pile on top of questions, and the one thing that does become clear is that danger can lurk in totally unexpected places . . .

I just recently found out about his book, and the first thing I thought was "Ooooh...pretty cover". I mean, I LOVE that cover, it is beautiful. Then I read the summary, and thought it seamed interesting. The next thing I noticed was that one of the characters was named Dex, I really don't know why I like that name so much, but any character with the name Dexter or Dex I love.
I don't really like mystery books, but I thought I would try to read this... what harm could it do?
