Escape Key

Be careful what you order on the Net! Lauren's grandmother Allie has ordered a chess tutor program for Lauren from a company called Checkmate. The idea is to improve Lauren's chess against Josh. Both Josh and Lauren are members of the Internet Detectives. Lauren lives in Toronto and Josh lives in Portsmouth with other members Rob and Tamsyn.Allie doesn't get her program but the Internet Detectives discover that the company is located in Perth Australia. This is good because Internet Detective Tom lives in Perth and he goes to check things out locally. He discovers that CheckMate has been raided by the police and the boss has fled out of the country.Here's a perfect International mystery for the Internet Detectives to solve. Even their buddy Mitch in New York is involved.Pretty cool book. But Allie never gets her program ...

The book, like the 1st one, happens around the world. In Escape Key, Rob Zanneli and Tamsyn Smith find a suit in the trash can and a buisness card and a credit card slip in the pocket of the suit. The name on the buisness card says Kelvin Moore. The credit card slip says K.M.Clark. Then, with the help of Tom Peterson, Lauren King, and Mitch Zanelli, Rob, Tamsyn, and Josh Allen find out at an internet show, during a chess game that K.M.Clark and Kelvin Moore are the same person. As soon as Josh loses to a chess grandmaster, when he says checkmate, Tamsyn speaks up and asks Kelvin Moore about his company,checKMate. The police then arrested Kelvin Moore. I don't know why.

I thought this was a great book.Rob and Tamsyn are at the airport and while they're there , they play there there own version of I Spy. They see a man who looks like a bum and then when he goes into the bathroom and changes, he comes out looking like a normal person. They find out the guy is Kevin B. Moore alias K. M. Clark and he's wanted for ripping people off. With help from their friends, Rob and Tamsyn solve the case.

This is a great book for people who enjoy using the Internet and like realistic adventures. The book is so interesting that I felt like I was one of the characters. Once you pick this book up, you can never put it down. I liked this book so much I am going to get another one. I recommend this book for kids 9-13 years of age.
