Description

In the charmingly bleak village of Hobtown, a sense of unease settles over the residents. With a population of just 2,006, the town's small world is ripe for investigation. The Teen Detective Club, a registered after-school program, is determined to get to the bottom of the town's bizarre occurrences, from pagan secret societies to possible "wee man" sightings. But when a real-life globetrotter enlists their help in searching for his missing father, the case takes a dark and unexpected turn. Something strange is going on in Hobtown, and no one will talk about it. The disappearance of the sixth man this year has left the town on edge. It's up to the teen detectives and their associates to stay alive long enough to crack the case. Kris Bertin and Alexander Forbes have created a unique universe in Hobtown, drawing from pulp and esoteric spirituality to craft a story of small-town identity and surreal mystery. With its blend of quirky characters, deft storytelling, and incredible attention to detail, The Case of the Missing Men is a gripping and unsettling read.
