Items related to Howard Wallace, P.I. (Howard Wallace, P.I., Book 1)
Aside from his trusty list of rules, 12-year-old private investigator Howard Wallace has got nothing. His office consists of a three-legged desk and a chair. He's got a decrepit old bike that can't get him away from the neighborhood bullies fast enough. He doesn't even have friends - just a rookie partner, new kid Ivy Mason, begging him to show her the ropes. And now they have to investigate a hot case of blackmail.

Casey Lyall (5'4", brown hair, blue eyes, no known aliases) is a middle-grade writer from Southwestern Ontario. She works at her local library where she runs a number of teen groups and waits for management to discover they're actually paying her to have fun. When she's not writing, Casey loves to bake, watch an "unhealthy" amount of movies and television, and of course, read. She'd consider adding detective work to the list if she could find a proper coat. You can find her on Twitter as @CKLyall and at caseylyall.com.
