Booklist - 02/15/2024 Twelve-year-old Sarah never really fit in. That is, until she met West and Hannah, the other members of her best-friend group known as the Deltas. Their love of math and escape rooms drew them together, and when Sarah finds out her home is being foreclosed on and she’ll have to move away from the only people who’ve ever understood her, she hopes their shared skills can bail her family out. How? There’s a local legend of a treasure hidden in an abandoned funhouse, and Sarah sees that treasure as the answer to all her family’s problems. Currie has a light touch with heavy issues, such as coping with a parent who has a chronic illness and financial instability, while also exploring problems such as personal insecurity and the strength needed to be honest and vulnerable with the people you care about. This page-turner with touching character moments makes a fun read for anyone who enjoys puzzle solving, escape rooms, and books centered around the power of friendship. - Copyright 2024 Booklist.
