Now that he has become the NYPD’s youngest crime-solving hero, Eddie Red and his best friend Jonah are ready to relax on a family vacation to Mexico.

Can Eddie – with his artistic talent and photographic memory – and Jonah uncover clues and catch the real crook in time? "Fast-paced, funny, and a sure pleaser for Cam Jansen Grads" (Kirkus), the Eddie Red series stars a hero worth rooting for.

Praise for Eddie Red Undercover: Mystery in Mayan Mexico

"All three kids are realistic and likable...[and] refreshingly, this book features an African American protagonist." —School Library Journal "With a hefty dash of Mexican culture, including both Mayan and Aztec ruins, and a varied cast of suspects, this mystery is also a good choice for reluctant readers." —Booklist —
