Detective Zack Vol 3 - Missing Manger Mystery & Danger Dinosaur Camp 

Book 5 of the Detective Zack Series

Take a church Christmas program, and outdoor Nativity scene, real barking, mooing, bleating animals (including a camel!), a female "wise man," battling shepherds, a mysterious fire, a missing antique manger-mix them together, and what do you have?

One of the funniest and most memorable Detective Zack adventures yet!

It all started when Mrs. Hopkins warned that disaster was certain if the program were to e held outdoors. Truer words were never spoken! The fire nearly destroyed the stable, and Mrs. Hopkins's 80-year-old manger from Bethlehem was missing! As Detective Zack and his friend Luke hunt for the culprit, they begin finding evidence for the even greater mystery-Santa Claus. Where did he come from, and what do trees, stocking, and presents have to do with the birth of Jesus?

The trail of clues takes Zack and company on a "wild lamb" chase that eventually leads them to the villain and the true meaning of Christmas.
