Kyle Keeley’s invitation to the opening-night lock-in at a library designed by game maker Luigi Lemoncello turns into a search for a way out: by morning, the doors remain locked, and Kyle and the other children must follow clues and solve puzzles to find an exit. The library is both the setting and the challenge, making books, games, and problem-solving central to the adventure. Bonus material includes additional puzzles and an author Q&A, extending the book’s interactive puzzle element beyond the story.
