Summary: The Surfing Corpse
Review: For every person who likes a little twist and a mystery, The Surfing Corpse is a book that you should read. The Surfing Corpse is a book about two best friends named Mackenzie and P.C. (Peter Christopher).Their junior class trip turns into a disaster when classmate Timmy Warner plunges down a 300-foot waterfall. Soon after his funeral, Mrs. Warner's strange behaviors send P.C. and Mackenzie to Los Angeles, where they follow a twisting trail of clues involving a mysterious surfer, a murderous ghost, and some good actors. My opinion of this book is that this is a great book that will keep turning the pages until the book is finished! I could not put this book down for a second. And when Timmy Warner plunged down the waterfall, I thought for sure that he'd survive and that he jumped himself. There were a lot of times where I thought I figured out the mystery and I didn't. If you read this book it will probably happen to you to. To figure out this mystery you must read this book. If you are going to try and figure out the mystery your self, good luck trying! Therefore, this is a great book. And I think that you should read it. So. Read it!

Review: I am reading this title aloud to my 5th, 6th, and 7th grade students. They moan and beg for just a little more everytime I tell them that we are out of time and they will have to come back next week to find out what happens in the next chapter. They love the snappy dialogue and are now borrowing every Paul Zindel book we own or can borrow from other libraries.

Summary: The thrilling second book in the series.
Review: P.C. and Mackenzie, along with the rest of their class, saw Timmy Warner fall to his death over a three hundred foot waterfall. But unlike the others, they don't accept it as a simple accident. When they suspect his angry mother may be involved, they follow her all the way across the country to L.A., where they meet Timmy's sister and discover that his mother is trying to use the supernatural to contact her dead son. Then one day at the beach, they see a shocking site. The dyed hair doesn't fool P.C. and Mackenzie. The surfer they saw is Timmy. At first they think the death was staged in order to collect insurance money. But the real reason will truly shock them. Fans of the first book about P.C. and Mackenzie won't want to miss this one.
