THE SECRET LETTERS

A new page-turning middle grade series by New York Times bestseller Margaret Peterson Haddix!

Colin and Nevaeh, whose parents own rival junk- removal business, uncover mysteries hidden in attics and basements and discover how trash can become treasure. They find vintage letters that lead to interlocking mysteries from the 1970s and 80s, and learn about “women's lib,” the ERA, and other social issues from history—and the way echoes from the past affect Colin and Nevaeh themselves.

Margaret Peterson Haddix grew up on a farm in Ohio. As a kid, she knew two girls who had the exact same first, middle, and last names and shared the same birthday—only one year apart—and she always thought that was bizarre. As an adult, Haddix worked as a newspaper reporter and copy editor in Indiana before her first book, Running Out of Time, was published. She has since written more than forty books for kids and teens, including the Greystone Secrets series, the Shadow Children series, the Missing series, the Children of Exile series, and lots of stand-alones. Haddix and her husband, Doug, now live in Columbus, Ohio, where they raised their two kids. You can learn more about her at www.haddixbooks.com.
