4-6Briny Deep Mysteries series.
After their classmates start disappearing from their idyllic beach town under mysterious circumstances, five close friends begin an investigation of their own and what they discover involves aliens from a strange planet called "Earth." Characters are numerous and somewhat underdeveloped, marring the trilogy's plot-driven texts. Still, classic-science-fiction excitement and brief installments will appeal to reluctant readers. Review covers these Briny Deep Mysteries titles: The Battle, The Disappearing, and The Return.
