Review: Dead Weight: Murder at Camp Bloom

Dead Weight: Murder at Camp Bloom Dead Weight: Murder at Camp Bloom by Terry Blas
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Dead Weight: Murder at Camp Bloom is a fun (as fun as murder can be) romp through a murder mystery with teens at the helm of solving it. The story takes place at Camp Bloom, a weight loss camp for teens. Some of the campers know each other and are familiar with the place, but others are new. Four of the characters make fast friends, especially when a couple of them witness one of the counselors getting murdered. But that's not all--as the group starts to put the clues together, even more mystery and mayhem emerge.

This was a great cozy mystery in comic book form. The only part about it that was a little muddled for me was that three male characters that become central to the murder mystery are a bit indistinguishable from each other, not because they look alike, but because they aren't in many pages before they appear as an important part of the story overall.

I would love to see more stories from these teens. They could probably find a lot of trouble to get into...
