Ridge thought the King William Art Festival would be all birthday fun, festival food and great art by the river. But when a famous painting disappears from the local museum-and a suspicious lookalike shows up-Ridge and his cousin Jaxon stumble into a mystery no one else seems to notice.
Armed with sharp eyes and big questions, the boys follow clues through crowded festival tents, quiet museum halls, and unexpected suspects. Everyone says the painting is safe, but Ridge is sure it's not. Can two young detectives uncover the truth before the real masterpiece is gone for good?
Full of family, friendship, and artistic adventure, this small-town mystery proves that even young eyes can see what grown-ups miss.
