Dozens of people disappeared for weeks at a time from a deserted mountain road only to reappear dazed and confused. Joe saw something that no one was supposed to see. That's why the hypnotist erased his memory. But now it's all coming back to him–and he's in mortal danger! Written specifically for struggling readers to explore genres, like mysteries and science fiction, these fast-paced books hold student interest until the last page. Questions at the end of each title promote cognitive development by making students think about vocabulary, comprehension, character, and plot.
