Books like The Man with the Red Bag by Eve Bunting


In the aftermath of 9/11, twelve‑year‑old Kevin Saunders boards a tourist bus with a skeptical eye. He quickly becomes convinced that the enigmatic Charles Stavros, with his bushy beard and ominous red bag, is hiding something sinister. With the support of a fellow passenger, Geneva, Kevin observes Stavros’s odd behavior and pursues clues that suggest the man’s motives may be far more perilous than a simple tourist’s detour. As the stakes climb, Kevin must outwit a man who might hold the key to global danger.
