Sammy Keyes and the Kiss Goodbye by Wendelin Van Draanen - - ESSENTIAL

Van Draanen, Wendelin Sammy Keyes and the Kiss Goodbye, 236 pgs. Alfred A. Knopf, 2014. $16.99. Language:PG (4 swears 0 Fs); Violence: PG; Mature Content: G.  

In the final book of the Sammy Keyes series, Sammy has finally been bested by one of the bad guys!  As the book begins, Sammy is injured, unconscious and in the hospital. Now it’s up to her friends to solve this case.  

A marvelous curtain call of the characters from the other books. There's a re-cap of all the cases as the suspect list is compiled, and old friends (and enemies) visit Sammy at the hospital.  Don’t start with this one, although many of the other books can be read out of order, save #18 Sammy Keyes and the Kiss Goodbye for last.  Goodbye Sammy!
