“I love this trio. The loyalty and love they have for each other will solve any problem (and escape room)! I loved seeing their talents in action and how they handled their weaknesses. I want to visit the abandoned fun house! The description of each room is so cool. Long live the Deltas!!” – Max Chase, The Bookloft 

“Take 3 parts “Goonies”, 1 part “Willy Wonka” and 5 parts imagination and you have the wonderful story Lindsay Currie packed into this exciting young readers novel! Readers will instantly be drawn into the adventure as it unfolds and will be on the edge of their seats with each new discovery explored. I couldn’t put this book down!” – Troy Derrer, Wordsmith Bookshoppe

“A trio of friends, a noble deed, a deserted fun house and a possible treasure makes this the perfect book for middle grade puzzlers or an edge of the seat read aloud that will have listeners begging for one more chapter! A thoroughly engaging store that will get those brain cells working.”
– Janice Penner, Watermark Books & Café

“Loved this fast-paced middle grade mystery. Using the framework of an escape room was a fun and original idea - and provided a great opportunity for the characters to work through some personal challenges, too. A great read!” – Kate Snyder, Plaid Elephant Books

“The clock is ticking as The Westing Game meets Willy Wonka with a dash of Stand by Me in this exciting adventure, as readers race to solve riddles and puzzles alongside the characters, who learn about themselves and each other straight through to the mystery's epic ending.” – Gibran Graham, The Briar Patch

“This is such a great vacation read! It's also perfect for the "read around the library" mystery category-- a smart, suspenseful story that readers will connect with.” – Tegan Tigani, Queen Anne Book Company
