Slapstick comedy caper starring movie aficionado Sam Swann and his faithful hound, Watson.
Samuel Swann's dad, special effects make-up artist to the stars, always takes Sam with him when he's working on location. Which is pretty cool. Movie sets are fun places to hang out - and you learn plenty, so that's the home schooling box ticked. However, when Sam and his pack brother Watson head for the backwoods of Romania for the filming of Zombie Dawn!!, what begins as a seemingly dull film shoot turns into something else entirely. Throw in a spoiled seven-year-old Hollywood megastar, a haunted castle and a horde of flesh-eating zombies and suddenly life gets a whole lot more exciting!
This is Book 1 in the Sam Swann's Movie Mysteries Series. See all Sam Swann's Movie Mysteries books here.
