The Mystery of Locked Rooms
Crack the codes, find the treasure, and escape the house in this fast-paced middle-grade adventure by Lindsay Currie, the bestselling author of Scritch Scratch and What Lives in the Woods.
Twelve-year-old Sarah Greene loves escape rooms and wants nothing more than to conquer the hardest one in town with her best friends, West and Hannah. But when her family receives a foreclosure notice, Sarah suddenly has much more at stake.
Then Hannah tells her about a legendary treasure hidden inside an abandoned 1950s funhouse built by three brothers. The house is packed with secret passages, trapdoors, riddles, codes, and strange challenges—but once the friends enter, the puzzles begin to feel disturbingly personal.
With Sarah’s future on the line, the trio must work together, solve the mystery, and figure out whether the treasure is real before the funhouse traps them for good.
