Synopsis

Team Jericho is the best scavenger hunting team in Seattle, and its four members each bring one skill. Jax solves puzzles, Yas does parkour, Spider hacks, and Han draws the maps. They are working-class teens, and they all have trouble at home.

An oil refinery is going up in their neighborhood. Their families could lose their jobs, their homes and the community around them.

Then The Order, a mysterious vigilante organization, takes over the scavenger hunting forum and posts a puzzle of its own. The prize is influence. For Team Jericho it is a real chance to change what happens to their families and to the city they love.

Another team is close behind them, and the hunt is dangerous. Street smarts alone will not be enough to beat the rivals. This is a young adult thriller with an action-driven, fast-moving plot, built around chases, codes and clues across the city.
