Publisher's Summary
From the acclaimed author of SLAY and The Cost of Knowing comes an action-driven, high-octane “thrill ride” (Kirkus Reviews) about a group of working-class teens in Seattle who join a dangerous scavenger hunt with a prize that can save their families and community.
Influence is power. Power creates change. And change is exactly what Team Jericho needs.
Jax, Yas, Spider, and Han are the four cornerstones of Team Jericho, the best scavenger hunting team in all of Seattle. Each has their own specialty: Jax, the puzzler; Yas, the parkourist; Spider, the hacker; and Han, the cartographer. But now with an oil refinery being built right in their backyard, each also has their own problems. Their families are at risk of losing their jobs, their communities, and their homes.
So when The Order, a mysterious vigilante organization, hijacks the scavenger hunting forum and concocts a puzzle of its own, promising a reward of influence, Team Jericho sees it as the chance of a lifetime. If they win this game, they could change their families’ fates and save the city they love so much. But with an opposing team hot on their heels, it’s going to take more than street smarts to outwit their rivals.
What the critics say
"Zeno Robinson, Soneela Nankani, Sagan Chen, and Ali Andre Ali (Jax, Yas, Spider, and Han respectively) move the story from their own perspectives in alternating chapters. Robinson and Chen, especially, put listeners into the shoes of their characters: in high school, competing with (and sometimes against) friends for what might just be survival. Perfect for teen readers with their eyes wide open who like their stakes high and their puzzles thrilling." (Caitlin Savage)
