I loved this book so much. It was full of suspense and action. It incorporated faith, dirt bikes, and mystery. Once I started reading it I didn’t want to put it down. I am 13 years old and I highly recommend this book for my age group. I am so excited and can’t wait for the next books to come out. – Reader of The Skeleton and the Lantern
As a retired middle school English teacher, this book is a must have for a classroom library. Each chapter ends with a cliffhanger encouraging the reader to continue the journey. Mystery and suspense, off road adventures and legend, make this a great read for even the reluctant reader. After reading this book, I went back and purchased copies for all of the kids in my family! – Reader of the Skeleton and the Lantern

Jeremiah and Millie Anderson live with their father and mother on a ranch in the desert where they can ride their dirt bikes all around. Their closest neighbors are the Morgans who run the Ridge Riders Lodge about fifteen minutes away and have two children, Paisley and Donovan. All the youngsters are being homeschooled by their parents. The Andersons are also providing foster care for a little boy named Caleb whose mother is in prison. When they see some mysterious lights at night, they learn about old rumors of ghost lights in nearby Dry Brook. Also, while out on their off road adventures, the brother and sister see some strange activities at an old abandoned store. Then all of a sudden, Caleb starts saying that the lights mean that his “sissy” is out there.
What is causing the lights? Is there any connection between them and whatever is going on at the vacant trading post? And does Caleb really have a previously unknown sister somewhere in the desert? Pre-teen and early teen fans of the Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew will love reading the MotoMysteries series which incorporates faith, dirt bikes, and mystery. There are a few common euphemisms (e.g., gee and gosh), but Ghost Lights of Dry Brook has a family friendly theme full of life lessons and the importance of making good choices. The author sprinkles in references to and about God with an underlying message of wholesome values, such as having love for others, friendship, kindness, and honesty. Each chapter ends with a cliffhanger encouraging the reader to continue, which makes this a great read for even the reluctant reader with its fast paced and action packed plot. The next book in the series is Phantom Ship in the Desert. There is also a “Christmas Mini-Mystery” entitled The Christmas Miracle.
Ghost Lights Of Dry Brook by Sherri Kukla is a Christian children’s adventure and perfect for ages ten and above. It is the second book in the Moto Mysteries series but can be read as a stand-alone.
The reader is treated to another mystery that the three children stumble upon. Their zest for life and their inquisitiveness endears them to the reader. I find that when I am reading I am reminded of the atmosphere of the Scooby Doo cartoons from my childhood.
The children have huge hearts. They have been adopted and given their forever home and are keen to extend a welcome to other lost souls. The reader understands the desire of Millie to be the only girl and her fear of being pushed into the background. The parents are fulfilling an inherited dream to be a refuge for hurting children.
Each chapter’s voice alternates between Millie in the third person and her brother Jeremiah in the first.
I am really enjoying this series. It is good old fashioned adventures led by children. No child’s reading experience should be without these books.
I received this book for free. A favourable review was not required and all views expressed are my own.
