He was breathing hard. Sweat was running down his face, but Tommy didn’t seem to care. “Hi Tommy,” Jamie said. Tommy was in her class at school. “Someone stole my science experiment,” Tommy wailed. “You guys solve mysteries. I need your help. If I don’t get those pellets back before tomorrow I won’t be able to finish. Then I won’t have a chance to win the science fair prize.” Tommy looked as if he was ready to cry. “What is the prize?” Jamie asked. “It’s a new computer,” he answered. “I was counting on it. My mom can’t afford to buy us a computer since my dad died,” he explained. “It takes forever to get time on the computer at the library.
