__ **Cover-Up,** __// John Feinstein // Review by Ben Bogart In this amazing football mystery, the main-character is a 13 year old T.V. star named Steven who loves to solve mysteries about sports. He has his own show called the //kids sports reporters//, in which he co-stars with his crush Susan-Carol. One day his producer comes over and tells him that they have found a more popular and in style analyst for the show, a movie star named Jamie Whitsitt. Stevie is already planning to go to the Super Bowl, so he plans to meet up with Susan-Carol there, and they will report together off television. Stevie and Susan-Carol come across a huge scandal with one of the teams, the California Dreams. The team’s whole offensive line is taking steroids. The team’s manger is a feisty cheater and plans to do anything to win even if that involves covering up the test results until after the game. Stevie and Susan-Carol plan to do everything in their power to expose him. This scandal is very well covered up, and Stevie and Susan-Carol run into many obstacles along the way. Then they find something that could possibly prove that this scandal is 100% real.

I recommend this book if you love a good sports story in which the underdog comes back and wins despite being tossed around by the team with the advantage. This book is also a very good mystery in which two kids do everything they can to stop an evil cheater from getting away with the biggest sports scandal ever. I liked this book because you never knew what would happen next and you really had to pay attention and read every word.
