(2) 4-6 Western Mysteries series. P.K.'s story opens when a gang of outlaws kills his foster parents and he escapes with his "Destiny," which turns out to be a deed to a mine worth millions. P.K. has trouble showing emotion and reading people, a dual problem that keeps getting him in trouble. The strongly voiced account succeeds as a rousing adventure that promises more action in a future installment. Glos.
