The Missing Lion Cub

An AC Maxwell Mystery Novel

By: Lorren Madaris

Narrated by: Ron Butler

When a lion cub is mysteriously stolen from the Houston Zoo, the police are too busy to help. Fifteen-year-old Alexandria Christina Maxwell, who everyone calls AC, is determined to solve the mystery. After all, her father is the renowned private investigator Alex Maxwell, and her mother is the famed investigative reporter Christy Madaris Maxwell. That means solving mysteries is in her blood.

With the help of her best friend, Wolf Sinclair, who has inherited mystical powers; a "play cousin" who is a techy genius, Glenn Chenault; and Wolf's trusted companion and protector — a wolf named Cherokee - they identify suspects and are determined to shut down the criminal operations and return the cub to the zoo.

Their investigation leads them to a shocking plot involving DNA experiments. As AC, Wolf, Glenn, and Cherokee race against time to save the cub, they uncover more than they ever expected.

**Perfect for fans of Nancy Drew and Percy Jackson, "The Lion Cub Mystery" is a gripping tale of friendship, courage, and unexpected powers.**

The whole story line

I have no dislike of this book, in fact this is a great book for children and adults. The characters made you feel like you are apart of the story trying to solve the mystery

Loved It!!!!

Truly a "GREAT" listen. I cannot wait for the next book in this series. Keep it coming.

An ABSOLUTE Joy!

OMGoodness! This is an amazing read! What makes it so special to me is that I’ve read the individual stories of all the adult characters/parents in this story! Listening to Ron Butler narrate this story of their offsprings has been sheer joy!This book and her newest book “Spilling the Tea” are simply brilliant storytelling! I highly recommend her Madaris Series, her Westmoreland Series, and her Catalina Cove Series! What an awesome writer! Though she is primarily known for her romance novels, this story is full of cultural richness, heartwarming mystery, and intriguing technological advancements minus the juicy romance she normally provides! 😁 I love this book!
