Mr. Melville's Social Studies class is known for two things: his Special Projects and his floating midterm. The Special Project, to solve a mystery in your own life, starts seventh grader Bethesda Fielding thinking about the mystery of timid Ms. Finkleman. Bethesda's discovery sets in motion a series of events that has the entire school abuzz, a new direction for the Choral Corral, and a change in many a classmates personalities. The arrival of the floating midterm brings its own set of challenges which can bring many plans to a crashing halt. Winters does a fine job creating believable and relatable characters. Although the plot is slightly predictable there are enough little zig-zags from the expected path to provide continued interest in a comfortable read.
