I didn't remember this book at all. I had foggy memories of not liking this book, but now that I have reread it, I actually liked it very well. In fact, it is probably one of my all-time favorites now too. I didn't remember much of anything with this book.
Anyway, this book was filled with all kinds of little tidbits from the past. Several past books are referenced and several places mentioned in previous books were also referenced.
Kirkland has now shown up three times so far in the series. Even Chartwell Academy gets a quick mention again. Virtually all the chums show up or at least get mentioned.
And we have a cliffhanger no less. Is Curt Branders dead? A loose end to this day?
It's been a very long time since I've read The Deadliest Dare and I rather liked it. I particularly recall that it started with a sneeze. I thought having "Ah-choo!" as the first line was a neat opening line.
I always liked it, it was the second Casefiles that I ever read, after Flight into Danger.
I just noticed that Chartwell Academy gets a third mention in Casefile #37.
