Publisher's Summary

An enthralling and inventive thriller, only on Audible

Thirteen-year-old Emily Poe has been given the opportunity of a lifetime: A chance to attend the exclusive Audyn School in Manhattan. But to win the scholarship, she has to pass a test like nothing she’s ever experienced before: A nearly bare room, a set of strange clues, a locked door. And a mysterious organization - the Leopold Foundation - that’s watching her every move. 

But the real test has just begun. Despite the strange circumstances - in a new house, at a new school - Emily instantly bonds with fellow scholarship winner Alice Wray. 

And then Alice goes missing. 

Chronicling every surprising twist and turn of her search through her own private video diary, Emily sets out to find the truth behind Alice’s disappearance. Soon she’s drawn deep into the inner circle of the Audyn School’s elite, the Nobility, who each have secrets of their own. As clues and lies mount, Emily must sort truth from fiction to solve the Mystery of Alice before it’s too late.

Unusual format

As an adult reading this I found it to be a little tedious but I think teenagers would enjoy it. It gave me something to listen to while driving and was sufficiently enjoyable.

The best book I've listened to so far!

This audio book was exceptional. The plot, capturing all of Emily's twists and turns, got me thinking more and more about what was going to happen next. The start was kinda boring and I almost got rid of it! Boy, would that have been a mistake. The author has exquisite writing skills and I will recommend this book to everyone I know. The narrators are awesome! Even though they're American I can still understand them even when the volume's turned right down. Everyone who has contributed to this book should be proud of the effort put into this. Good job guys!
From your average happy audiobook listener.😁

Worth a listen

At first I thought I wouldn’t like this book. I stuck through a few chapters though and it got interesting. By the end I was glued to the story. I found the concept interesting and it was fun to guess what was going on. Yeah, it was kinda easy to guess who was behind it all, but it was still interesting to hear it all play out.

Not my thing

I bought this book after reading the positive reviews. However, I found it dull, disappointing, unrealistic, and incredibly slow.
I have no dislike of the author, and the main narrator did a phenomenal job with what she was given. Please note that this is my personal opinion and is just being posted to ensure perspective readers can make informed decisions.
Thank you
