"Isn't meddling kids the catch phrase of literally every unmasked villain in Scooby-Doo?"
Well yes, yes it is.
In the summer of 1977, four teenagers and a dog formed the Blyton Hills Summer Detective Club. They ran all over town looking for crimes they could help solve. Their last case helped unmask the Sleepy Lake Monster. After 13 years, the man behind the mask was released from prison. That's when Andrea "Andy" Rodriquez hunts him down in an attempt to uncover the mastermind behind the actual crime.
Soon enough, Andy's kicking misogynistic ass in Kerri's bar. They grab Kerri's dog, Tim, and head towards the Arkham facility to bust out Nate. They have unfinished business in Blyton Hills.
So this basically took the teens from Scooby-Doo, aged them up to mid-20s, gave them much darker backstories, and handed them weapons. Oh, and throw in some necromancy for spice. It was an odd little book that didn't really do much for me. But I think anyone who grew up watching Scooby and his pals would probably enjoy this book.
