This high concept, frenetic ride dives into the fascinating world of interactive role-playing when Sid recognizes the photo of a murder victim during an AP field trip to a police station. What starts out as an Aha  moment soon finds Sid and her unlikely posse of friends chasing a dark web killer through the middle of a live action role playing game. Sid and the gang work to unravel a deeply encrypted mystery while simultaneously enduring pop quizzes, endless Ted Talks, teenage heartbreak, suspicious parents, cosplay, and the irresistible lure of the NYC Public Library. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eStefani Deoul\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of the award-winning novel \u003ci\u003eThe Carousel\u003c\/i\u003e.
