Opis

A small neighborhood in New York seems like a very dull place to begin a story. But imagine this. A black Porsche spies on a seemingly humble couple. Mr. and Mrs. Reade go about their daily activities oblivious to their already decided fate. The two men dressed in black seem to dampen the mood even more. Why? What is this so called organization that seeks to eliminate members of a most secretive Society? On the contrary, Justin Reade, a seventeen year old teenager seems to just know it all. His skill for noticing small details and untangling the mystified has allowed him to solve numerous cases for the police. But misfortune follows him like that of the sticky substance, crazy glue. Millionaire Francis Wayne invites to him to a party at his mansion. However, is that what it seems? Then, Justin was nominated to participate in the Young Detective Competition at a so called Tortoise Island. However, horror lurks at his path once again. Finally, he pays a visit to the Louis family that seems to be cursed by a legendary instrument worth thousands, perhaps millions of dollars. Is there such a thing as a curse? Ultimately, is everything in life always what it seems?
