Books with title Black Juice

When Sherlock and Amyus Crowe, his American tutor, visit Sherlocks brother Mycroft in London, what they find shocks both of them to the core: a locked room, a dead body, and Mycroft holding a knife. The police are convinced Mycroft is a vicious murderer, but Sherlock is just as convinced he is innocent. Threatened with the gallows, Mycroft needs Sherlock to save him. The search for the truth necessitates an incredible journey, from a railway station for the dead in London all the way to the frozen city of Moscow—where Sherlock is entangled in a world of secrets and danger. In Black Ice, the unstoppable teenage sleuth undertakes his third fantastic adventure, as one deadly puzzle leads only to another. Sherlock Holmes: Think you know him? Think again.

Britt Phieffer is not that adventurous. She has followed the leads of others her whole life; her brother, her best friend, her boyfriend. But when her boyfriend, Cal, breaks up with her, Britt is through with playing it safe. For spring break, she convinces her best friend, Korbie, to hike the Grand Tetons with her, something she has never even considered. But Cal is an expert hiker and if there is one thing that will impress him, it's this. She'll train and plan the perfect trip and show everyone how strong she can be. When a freak storm strands the girls in the woods and she is certain she has made the dumbest decision of her life, they come across a cabin and two knights in shining armor, Shaun and Mason. But soon they find out that Shaun and Mason are on the mountain for very different reasons than hiking. They have done something terrible and they need to get off the mountain. Fast. They need Britt's knowledge of the area to guide them and won't take no for an answer so they set out on a harrowing journey through the cold. Britt realizes the only way to get out of this alive is to pretend she is on their side. So she plays nice with the (admittedly sexy) Mason and becomes so entangled she can't keep track of who is actually in control. It is only a matter of time before things turn deadly and Britt truly has no one to rely on but herself.

Michael Krystyniak YVS President/Superintendent Covenant House Academy As a former coach of an inner city hockey team in Detroit, I appreciate first-hand the adversity a young African-American player can face in a traditionally White sport.
