The Cold Kid Case: A Sparky of Bunker Hill Mystery by Rosalind Barden – Review by Stephanie Tellas

“Meet Sparky, an orphaned, street-savvy 11-year-old living by her wits in the Depression-era Bunker Hill neighborhood of downtown Los Angeles. She is on a mission to clear her name after being accused of the murder of a little girl whose body she discovers on a park bench—talk about being in the wrong place at the wrong time! And things only get worse when Sparky is blamed for ever more outrageous crimes until her body count is ridiculous. Will Sparky be able to summon the gumption to solve the crime and clear her name? Rosalind Barden crafts an unforgettable and uniquely zany mystery, filled with a web of colorful characters, recalling the charm of decades past, with Hollywood, movie stars, mobsters, and, of course, murder.”
Was Sparky able to clear her name? Will have to read the book to find out. This story had my attention from the beginning and throughout, the characters were great, I give this book 4 stars.
