This mystery begins when Bailey Fish and Justin Rudd are hired to help clean and repair the Keswick’s house.  While they are cleaning, the kids find a treasure while cleaning up the trash inside the house.  Things get mysterious when some of the items disappear. Everyone thinks Justin, the neighborhood bully, is the thief. Noah, Fred, and Bailey decide to make a trap to catch the thief.  What they discover is surprising.

This book is the third title in Bailey Fish adventure series. The first book was a finalist for Foreword’s Book of the Year Award. It is great for kids who like to read mysteries. I gave it three stars because I enjoy reading action-packed books.  I recommend “The Thief of Keswick Inn” for anyone that likes detective stories, but not for kids who want an action-packed story.
