Jeff Bailey Reviews The Blue Beneath The Mountain by LA Hearn

 

The Blue Beneath the Mountain is a children’s/preteen adventure story by the Australian author L. A. Hearn and was a wonderful read. Young Rayna loves visiting her grandmother because grandma lives up against a mountain, a mountain with caves to explore. The caves are one of her favorite playgrounds, until she sees something unusual, the blue light. She must investigate the blue light. What could go wrong. The mystery is reminiscent of the Hardy Boys mysteries that I grew up reading. While this is a children’s story, I’m 77 and I enjoyed it. There is an element of Sci-fi (strong element), a corporate conspiracy (crazy bad guys), and of course the strange ‘being’ hiding in the shadows. Beefed up a little, The Blue Beneath the Mountain would have made an excellent 007/Bond movie. There is more here than initially meets the eye for the young readers. Five big stars.
