One missing artifact. Four tech-genius rivals. Ten hours until sunrise.
Twelve-year-old Maya Thorne doesn't believe in luck - she believes in evidence. While other kids play games, Maya studies fingerprints, tracks clues, and follows her strict Rule of Three: Observe. Analyze. Conclude.
So when a mysterious golden envelope summons her to Iron Gables - the estate of a reclusive billionaire - Maya knows this isn't an ordinary invitation.
She's been chosen to compete in the Great Hunt for the Solarion Egg, a legendary mechanical treasure said to hide a century-old secret.
But before the hunt even begins, the Egg is stolen.
The gates lock. The security system fails. A thick mist traps everyone inside the mansion.
Now Maya must outwit four brilliant rivals, navigate shifting corridors, decode mechanical puzzles, and uncover the truth behind whispers of a ghostly clockmaker.
Because this isn't just a missing artifact.
It's a race against time.
And logic is the only weapon that never runs out of power.
Perfect for readers who love smart young heroes, thrilling puzzles, and fast-paced mystery adventures, The Case of the Cracked Solarion is a gripping middle-grade detective story about courage, curiosity, and the power of a brilliant mind.
