Theres even a new business that has stepped in to take its place (and take the heat off Mac and Vince for once). Things couldnt be better.

And before their old nemesis, Staples, came back to town begging for help after his stint in the clink. Just when Mac and Vince thought they were out, the business pulls them back in. But this time, will they be able to escape with their lives and their permanent records intact
Reviews
Readers will be flushed with excitement to follow Mac's operations from the fourth stall. -- Kirkus Reviews, about THE FOURTH STALL PART II Rylander uses the slow build to set the noir feel of the novel, creating an antihero protagonist who is hard not to like and respect. Fans...will not be disappointed. -- Voice of Youth Advocates (VOYA), about THE FOURTH STALL PART II Mac narrates the...tale with the arch flatness of a 1940s satire of the noir detective genre...Excellent. -- ALA Booklist, about THE FOURTH STALL Rylander mines a substantial amount of humor and heart from this combination hard-boiled crime novel and middle-grade character piece. A light and enjoyable caper. -- Publishers Weekly, about THE FOURTH STALL Do yourself a favor. Read it. Now. -- Jon Scieszka, about THE FOURTH STALL
