In Down the Rabbit Hole, Inrid Levin-Hill is just your normal Sherlock Holmes loving, soccer playing 13 year-old girl...who happens to be the last person to see a murder victim alive. Recently cast as the lead role in the Prescott Players production of Alice in Wonderland, Ingrid realizes the woman who was killed was also a member of the Prescott Players many years before. Faced with the realization that the killer may be closer than anyone realizes, Ingrid has to solve the murder before she finds herself being accused.
I absolutely loved Down the Rabbit Hole. It was a fun mystery that kept me hooked as I got to know Ingrid, her family, friends, and the town of Echo Falls better. The character development was quite good and I'm excited to get to read more about Ingrid's world in the two books that follow. The book was completely appropriate for the age level it was written for, and I would feel good recommending this book to any middle or high school student. I must say that I figured out the killer fairly quickly, but that's probably due in part to being an adult and having read many mysteries with a similar formula. There are two other companion books about Ingrid and the town of Echo Falls.
