Amnesia, missing chapters, and a race to save a friend pull three kids into a meta mystery between books and reality.
First published 2016 · Story Thieves
The Story
Owen, Kiel, and Bethany are caught in a sequel built around missing memories and missing chapters. Owen and Kiel wake with their memories erased, while Bethany is trapped and running out of time.
As they piece together what happened, the trio has to navigate clues, false identities, and a villain who seems to know more than he should. Their search crosses between fictional and non-fictional worlds, with books, stories, and identities constantly blurring.
The story unfolds through redacted sections, flashbacks, and layered reveals, so the truth arrives piece by piece. As the countdown closes in, the friends must solve the mystery, rescue Bethany, and make sense of what is real before the deadline hits.
