Brady Hart and the big fake out / by Osborne, Jill,1961-author.(CARDINAL)407767;
"Can you spot a fake? Brady Hart knows the truth: He's not a normal sixth-grade boy. Armed with a keen sense of justice and a photographic memory, he's on a mission to sniff out bad guys and use God's wisdom to set things right in the world. If he can figure out how. After all, he's just a kid. His best buddy, Sunday from Kenya, keeps him calm and laughing most of the time. Gladiss Finkel annoys him, but she has his back. That's a hard fact to ignore, since she always shows up wherever there's trouble, including Colby's department store right as he's about to bust a shoplifter. Brady can't ignore something else. Counterfeits are popping up everywhere. Headphones with a tweaked logo, a sneaky store manager, and even a new leader at church--suddenly nothing adds up, yet everything fits together. Brady decides it's time to strap on his Belt of Truth (the one he made out of aluminum foil in third grade), call in Special Agent Max Dunham from the FBI, and uncover the lies threatening to destroy the people he loves." --

The art of making money : the story of a master counterfeiter / by Kersten, Jason.(CARDINAL)461672;
Art Williams' comfortable middle-class boyhood was shattered when, in short order, his father abandoned the family, his bipolar mother lost her wits, and Williams found himself living in one of Chicago's worst housing projects. He took to crime, starting with petty theft before graduating to robbing drug dealers. Eventually a man nicknamed "DaVinci" taught him the centuries-old art of counterfeiting. After a stint in jail, Williams emerged to discover that the Treasury Department had issued the most secure hundred-dollar bill ever created: the 1996 New Note. Williams spent months arriving at a bill so perfect that even law enforcement had difficulty distinguishing it from the real thing. He went on to print millions in counterfeit bills, selling them to criminal organizations and using them to fund cross-country spending sprees. Still unsatisfied, he went off in search of his long-lost father, setting in motion a chain of betrayals that would be his undoing.--From publisher description.
