The Missing Link: Found is a mystery primarily written by a homeschooled teenager. Our eleven-year-old was handed the book when it came in the mail for our review. She was at first intrigued that a girl near her age wrote the book, but she soon became interested in the story itself. Our gal hasn't finished the book yet, but she is moving along at a steady pace and seems to be enjoying it!
The following is a description of the book, The Missing Link: Found, from Media Angels, the family-owned publishing company:
Once again, the Murphy teens are propelled into another exciting adventure! While on vacation in the Keys, a devious plot unfolds, and the Murphys find themselves in the middle of a full-speed boat case and encounter with the FBI. Their vacation plans are then cut short by the arrival of a cryptic message form Dr. Murphy's brother, requesting his immediate presence at an anthropological dig along the Peace River. What Dr. Murphy, Christian, and Anna find there is anything but peaceful!
Encountering a deadly illness, the Murphys must also wrestle with a startling discovery and its potential results. The Missing Link has been discovered, finally providing evidence for the theory of evolution. But, what about the Bible? Didn't God create the world as recorded in Genesis? In addition, is there a connection between their adventure on the high seas and their discoveries a the dig site? Join the Murphys as they are faced with danger and a race against time in search for the truth.
In the Truth Seekers Mystery Series, you'll experience adventure, mystery, heart stopping suspense, and faith played out first-hand by the Murphy family. This action adventure mystery will keep you guessing to the very end!
*Please Note: The book comes from a Christian point of view and creationism, or creation science, is a main theme in the book.
