SEC: Mystery/Espionage Authors for Teens

[George Anne Draper <GDraper@WYNNE.K12.AR.US>]

I am "slowyly" weeding fiction and find that our students
rarely read mystery, not the kind I like anyway. Nor do they
read much esponiage. The Dick Francis books never get checked
out. Do any of your students read Victor Canning? We probably
have 10 of his books that are never checked out. The librarian
before me was wonderful, but she bought a lot of mysteries,
etc. that the students don't seem to read at all anymore. Can
you suggest some authors that are better for teens than the
popular adult mystery authors? Thanks.
