The Boxcar Children #69-The Movie Star Mystery created by Gertrude Chandler Warner

Usually I do not like the Boxcar Children books written after #19 because they are not written by Ms. Warner.  This one, however, was well written, kept the tradition of Ms. Warner's characters and had a well-developed plot.
The Boxcar children become friends with a young man who recently moved into a local abandoned mansion.  They soon discover that he is a movie star with a very protective body guard.  Strange events have happening when he is filming a movie.  A pesky report is determined to find a big story from these events.
My boys had a great time trying to determine who the culprit was!
*Highly recommend the series.
Strategy:  predicting
