When Oliver's great-grandfather's pocket watch is confiscated at school, Chase, a budding detective, vows to help him get it back.

A self-proclaimed authority on paranormal activities, Chase convinces Oliver and his friends, Eduard and Gio, to go along with investigating the curious happenings at their school.

What begins as the simple task of reclaiming Oliver's pocket watch swiftly turns into a full-fledged investigation into the paranormal happenings at Raven Ridge Academy, as they also face bullies, rivals, and Oliver's annoying little brother. And don't forget Jax, the girl of Oliver's dreams....

As the kids delve further into their investigation, they find themselves caught in a web of trouble with their lives in peril, the fate of the world at stake, and time running out. Will they solve the mystery before it's too late?

The Dirt Bike Detective is an epic, entertaining tale for the entire family, combining endearing characters, intricate mysteries, humor, and excitement for all ages.

Overall this isn't a bad book. Ramon de Ocampo does a great job as always with all of the voices. Overall the characters are unique, well developed, and have their own personalities. Only problem is this book seems like it is about twice as long as it probably should be. Sections just seem to drag themselves out without moving the story along. Overall a fairly good book though.

Okay, but twice as long as it probably should be.

Hoover masterfully paints his gang of heroes and de Ocampo brings them to life with perfection. The story captures the tween psyche—a humorous balance between childhood imagination and a bubbling autonomy—as these young guardians tackle the mysterious and villainous crimes, real or imagined, of Raven Ridge. A great read for kids 9-15. Hoover’s debut is a grand slam. Looking forward to the next installment.

Bravo! Adventure and mystery—a literary Goonies

My seven year old granddaughter and I listened to this book together and we both enjoyed it thoroughly. She asked to listen every time we got into the car and listened intently. She is an avid reader so this book was perfect for her. As for me, I found myself laughing out loud at the humor and situations that everyone can relate to. The Dirt Bike Detective is a fun humorous mystery that everyone in the family will enjoy.
Ramon de Ocampo has voices that make every character unique and believable bringing this adventure to life.

Best listen in a long time

This is an interesting story about high school or middle school kids with great imagination uncovering a plot to kidnap the President of the United States. I just want to emphasize that the narrator was great — one of the best - which made this a really interesting book to listen to. I give five stars for the narrator and four stars for the story.

Great narrator!
