The London Eye Mystery

A missing boy. A race against time. An autistic kid sleuth on the case… High up above the rooftops on the London Eye, you can see everything. So why can no one see where Salim has gone? 11.32am.

Has he spontaneously combusted? (Ted’s theory.) Has he been kidnapped? (Aunt Gloria’s theory.) Is he even still alive? The police are baffled – so it’s up to Ted, whose brain runs on a unique operating system, to find Salim. Quickly – before time runs out…
