FRIDAY: A Fatal Frame of Mind by William Rabkin

Summary

Gus receives a letter from a former professor, asking for his help. So Gus kidnaps Shawn, taking him to an art museum rather than the C. Thomas Howell Festival. Once at the museum, the guys find out there's been a murder, and Gus' professor is the primary suspect. The professor knows he's been framed, so he takes Lassie hostage to make his escape. Gus and Shawn get caught up in the conspiracy theory and try to clear his name.

Review


More twists and turns than usual in this story and the professor is a real pain sometimes. But the pop-culture references (Harry Potter, Transformers, Scooby Doo, Monty Python, and League of Their Own) and a great scene with Henry and Lassie, as well as the usual Shawn and Gus banter make it worth reading.


3 out of 5 stars
