College student Sara Donovan is in the homestretch of graduating when a mysterious package arrives with an invitation to an exclusive contest. One that will drastically change the winner’s life. Included are unsettling photographs from forgettable chapters in her life and a threatening note strongly suggesting she participate.

With no good options, Sara enters the contest and finds herself at a fabulous mansion up against eight formidable opponents, each with a dark secret and all racing to solve seven levels of riddles and puzzles.

After a contestant’s body is discovered, Sara contemplates dropping out when another package arrives, its chilling contents making clear she’s at the center of a dangerous game with deadly consequences if she quits. But what it doesn’t say is—what happens if she wins?

 

Review

This story was so captivating, I couldn't put it down.

The characters are well developed, believable and intriguing. It was so well written that I could picture all the details and felt I was there. I would love to see this as a movie!

This is a story that is perfectly appropriate for tweens, teens, young adults and adults alike. All will enjoy the wit and mystery.
