Hobbies on a Budget received a copy of this book for the purpose of the review. All opinions are my own. No monetary compensation was received.

My 11 year old daughter is a huge book worm and is always in the middle of the latest adventure or mystery. When she heard that the 4th book in the Samantha Sanderson series had been released she was excited and ready to check it out. “Without a Trace” didn’t disappoint.

Samantha Sanderson Without a Trace

Natalie’s Review

Samantha Sanderson “Without a Trace” is another wild mystery but this time it’s about missing Tam Lee. When the police discover the case of this missing boy, they go about it as a run-away. That being said, Sam grows restless, so she enlists some help from her besty Makayla to help.

Will Sam make a breakthrough and find Tam, or will be everything be too late?

I recommend this book for girls age 10-12. This book will be great for those who love a mystery. I found Samantha Sanderson “without a Trace” as a light, easier, interesting and fun read.

About the book

“Sam Sanderson is an independent, resourceful, high-tech cheerleader. She dreams of becoming an award-winning journalist like her mother, so she’s always looking for articles to publish in her middle-school paper (where she secretly hopes to become chief editor). With a police officer for a father, Sam is in no short supply of writing material.

In the fourth book of the Faithgirlz Samantha Sanderson series, Sam’s friend Tam Lee is missing. As the days pass, all clues seem to point to something sinister in Sam’s opinion. Sam must decide whether to do what everyone wants her to and let law enforcement continue to work as though Tam is a run-away. Or should Sam follow her heart and keep poking around looking for more clues?

The Samantha Sanderson series is about an ordinary girl with extraordinary dreams. Each book touches on a crime straight from headlines, from bomb threats to bullying, while following Samantha and her friends as they navigate middle-school and questions of faith.”
