    About this ebook

    The Case of the Disappearing Corpse is a prequel to a series of hilarious mysteries starring Chiana Ryan, an almost-13-year-old wannabe crime writer. When a babysitter discovers a dead body in her garden, Cha decides to use all her super-sleuth talents to hunt down the murderer--and just maybe win the online crime-writing contest with her story. It's not as if there's any lack of clues. First, there's the suspicious pink handkerchief with the letter K embroidered in the corner. Then a bent old man in a grey cardigan and baggy trousers tells Cha all about the two aliens who landed their space-mobile on the church roof. And what about the disappearing body that turns up two days later in the garden shed? With the help of her friends, and against the firm advice of a local police officer, Cha leaps into the mystery and discovers--almost too late--there's a big difference between a storybook mystery and the real thing.

    June Whyte

    A former school teacher, competitive horse rider, and greyhound trainer, June Whyte has always dreamed of being an author.She wrote her first full-length story (with chapters) when she was nine-years-old - Donald McDonald in Texas - a story involving a rather extraordinary boy who rode buck-jumpers in a rodeo.And when she penned her first murder mystery, Murder Behind Bars, it resulted in her fifth-grade teacher questioning her home life.Even now, in retirement, June's favorite spot is sitting in front of her computer, drawing on her knowledge of greyhounds and horses to create humorous mysteries for both adults and younger teens.
