This novel by Eric Berlin is about a boy named Winston Breen that takes part in an all-day puzzle hunt. Winston is psyched. However, the puzzles prove to be more challenging and the competitors more competitive than he had thought. There also may be a cheater lurking around somewhere... But! Don't give up! There still may be hope left.
When they get in a jumbled mess between the teams of the riddle hunters, it is up to Winston and his friends to unscrew it up. After all, this is a fight for puzzles. Yet at the same time, it's a fight for dignity!
Dmitri Simon, the host of the hunt, seems to get the game into a mess as well: letting the cheaters keep of cheating until the end of the game. It looks like accidents are all happening to the teams. As if someone wants to get them out of the way.... The only way for Winston's team is to win seems like combining with others. Will they be able to stick together?
Eric Berlin wrote a nerve-wracking novel of puzzles, more puzzles, and Winston Breen. Read it to find out who wins!
***I give this book an 8 out of 10!***
