There is a ghost on Hellsfire Street. The street is appropriately named by the way. Mrs. Teska is in trouble, and it's up to Steve and Sinbad to help her. They use a "trojan horse" manuever to try to save Sheriff Landry's job as well. Steve and Sinbad are kept busy in this adventure to help some elders in their town preserve their lives! This is just a little reminiscent of "Sinbad and Me."

The book that I'm reading is called The Ghost on Hellsfire Street. This book is about a famous ecologist named Gunther Waldorf. One day when Steven was going home from the corner store he sees Mr. Gunther Waldorf being kidnapped. When he goes to Sheriff Landry, he thinks that he has just seen something small and blowing it way out of proportion. Then, all of a sudden a man or a committee I should say was going to run against Sheriff Landry for Sheriff. When his daughter Minerva gets involved she tries to analyze things and thinks that everything that happens in life has a reasonable explanation.
On a totally different subject one night Steven is contacted by a pirate ghost who asks him to be the one who finds his treasure. All he wants with the money is a proper burial. But the catch is his over 200 years old, and so is his treasure chest. Solo Yerkes is the one who is suspected of burning down Mr. Gunther Waldorf mansion. But you will be in a big surprise when you find out who the real culprit is.

I really enjoyed this book because, I thought that it brought more to you that the normal mystery standards. I had a lot of depth and touch topics. Sometimes when I was reading this book I would get confused and think how does this go with the story but later I found out that everything was put in this book for a reason you just have to think and suspect thing you never would. But it all leads to the killer and where this treasure is located to eventually catch the potential murderer.
