Welcome to The Game - an exciting summer camp where you will make new friends, build resilience and test your limits! You will be put into a team of five with strangers, no screens, no shortcuts. Everyone starts from scratch and has to make friends and find a way to the finish line together.

Tig has been packed off to Game Camp to gain confidence, but is immediately wary of the other team members: bossy and ultra-competitive Maya, intense Joni, grumpy screen-addicted Frank and quiet, sporty Jake.

They are all so different: but must find a way to work together. They embark on a series of physical and mental challenges, with Tig (and therefore the reader) choosing the path.

When the team start noticing strange things happening around them in the woods - ghostly noises, wild weather and suspicious-looking Game Camp staff - they uncover a mystery to solve. Will you lead the team to victory, or into chaos? And will they all find out a lot about their true selves during the process...? You, the reader, will make choices for the team throughout this story. YOU are in charge of the Game!

• An empowering, highly engaging format and a cracking mystery story all in one.
