Produktbeschreibung
Jack Taylor and his mother are still struggling to settle into their new lives without Jack's father as they journey to his hometown for the holidays. Jack's mother is clinging desperately to happy memories, but she doesn't seem to remember that she's repeating the same day over and over. The same bizarre repeating day brings Jack to a small town, where he finds an unexpected ally in an aspiring investigative journalist who has had a few strange days of her own. Their investigation leads them to the Holiday Hotel, and the two young people discover that the imaginary characters from their favorite stories are more realistic than they ever could have guessed. In this wondrous hotel for vacationing holiday spirits, Jack finds himself caught up in an otherworldly mystery that threatens to destroy his world along with theirs. With the help of his new partner, an alluring fortune teller, and a few benevolent spirits, Jack uses his crackerjack detective skills to help him solve his first case and come closer to unraveling a deep family secret of his own. Readers have called it "The Nightmare Before Christmas meets Hardy Boys Mystery!" and "The next great series of a new generation." This young adult detective novel by Christian Wynn promises to be the first of many thrilling adventures as Jack Taylor's quest to reunite with his father takes him beyond the realm of even his wildest dreams. The Holiday Hotel is only his first stop. . . .

Autorenporträt
Christian N. Wynn was born in Travis Air Force Base, California, and his father's military service took the family all over the United States. As an adult (sort of), he moved from Delaware to Maryland after being cursed. Cursed to write mysteries blended with holiday magic. He has four cats he didn't ask for but loves, a wife he loves but doesn't deserve, and a book series that deserves a read from anyone who is nostalgic for Nancy Drew, the Hardy Boys, and quirky holidays. The personal experiences of his friends and family are often his most important inspiration for the characters and stories he creates, including the middle-grade fiction series 'The Jack Taylor Cases.' This series has been described as The Hardy Boys Mysteries meets The Nightmare Before Christmas. Along with the Jack Taylor Cases, Mr. Wynn's future writing plans include a series about summer vacations in a strange town, a trilogy of children's books featuring warrior teddy bears, and other books starring dreamers in 'Jack Taylor Cases.'When he isn't writing, Christian enjoys slipping obscure movie lines into conversations, collecting refrigerator magnets from his travels, and reading written works by Rick Riordan, Suzanne Collins, and Daniel Handler. He's also a Hufflepuff and a Los Angeles Chargers fan.You can find more about Christian Wynn and the Jack Taylor Cases at www.jacktaylorcases.com.
