From Booklist:
Gr. 4-6. In these volumes, six and seven of the Stevie Diamond Mystery series, 13-year-old Stevie and Jesse, her partner in crime detection, stumble on unusual events. In Shine in the Dark, a family reunion on an island near Vancouver inspires the intrepid Stevie and the more fearful Jesse to probe decades-old family secrets and explore a frightening cave as they seek the solution to the mystery of why Stevie's uncle disappeared. Members of Stevie's eccentric family form the core of this entertaining cast of characters. In Silly Movie, Stevie and Jesse are hired as extras in a horror film. A series of unfortunate events convinces some cast and crew that the film is jinxed, but the young detectives prove that the explanation is sabotage and find the culprit. Readers will be intrigued by the culture and vocabulary of the movie set, which makes a colorful backdrop for the mystery. Bailey is a Canadian writer with a flair for crisp dialogue as well as snappy book titles. Carolyn Phelan
