"Mandie and the Hidden Past" by Lois Gladys Leppard


About this book:

  “When Mandie learns of a crack on the wall of the secret tunnel beneath her house, she’s convinced it holds a mystery. The further she investigates, the more everyone keeps her away, making Mandie more determined than ever. But what she finally discovers be better left buried!”


Series: Book #38 in “Mandie” series.

My personal Rating-
It’s so hard to believe that we’re almost at the ending of this series! More of a laid-back mystery, Mandie does push some boundaries in it, but it does all work out. A fun read, but I was a bit disappointed by the lack of Spiritual Content.


See y’all on Monday with a new review!
