Smart Phone: A Mystery Adventure

“Friendship, teamwork, and brains tackle a most unusual travel mystery adventure!”

What secrets lie in YOUR mobile device?

It’s 2009. “Influencer” isn’t yet a career path, smartphones are fast becoming the new thing, and Jeffrey James — almost 13 — is living his dream: Born and raised in Iowa, he’s visiting California for the first time!

But his exciting tour of L.A., guided by his cousin Margaret and their new friend Diana, takes a dark turn when strange texts start popping up on his new phone. Messages pointing him and his companions to places where bad things happens — accidents, fires, crimes — that begin creeping much too close to home.

And as they desperately search for answers, one thing is clear: detective work is a lot harder than it looks! Especially for such an unlikely trio of Sherlock wannabes: There’s Jeffrey — the Jeopardy!-loving bookworm; Margaret — his 13-year-old loner cousin with an attitude; and Diana — 14, rich, beautiful, and bored (with her own limo driver).

So what could possibly go wrong?

Full of heart and humor, and set against a backdrop of L.A. landmarks and sun-kissed beaches — from a Brentwood mansion and Malibu cave, to cruising the streets of Hollywood in a vintage Rolls Royce — what begins as a magical travel adventure soon spirals into a scary thrill ride.

For an exciting blend of danger, fun, and brain-teasers, join Jeffrey and his friends on this wild, thought-provoking journey — a page-turning mystery and cautionary tale of technology’s expanding influence that lingers long past its final page.
