"The Mystery of the Gray Car" is a children’s mystery set in 1950s Norfolk, following Mary as she notices that several seemingly ordinary events may be connected.

​

A broken window at her father’s hardware store, a matchbook found where it does not belong, a mysterious telephone call, and a familiar gray car give Mary questions that refuse to go away.

​

With Evelyn, Buddy, Baxter, and the adults around her, Mary learns that solving a mystery does not always mean uncovering every secret. Sometimes it means noticing what matters, asking the right questions, and refusing to look away.

​

This is Book 1 in the Mary Parker: Mysteries series—perfect for young readers who enjoy friendship, careful observation, and quiet suspense.
