The Game meets Escape Room in this YA science-fiction mystery thriller. A gothic-style castle in upstate New York is the venue for a deadly game of captivity for Danny, a first-year-college student, and four of his brilliant schoolmates. With no memory of how they got there, the group must solve intricate puzzles in order to escape their perilous confinement...but why? When Danny wakes up in a dark, strange room, he has little time to try to remember why he is there and who is responsible, before the walls start closing in on him. A quick assessment alerts the intelligent teen that he is tasked with figuring out how to save himself and escape the room. He has no time to celebrate his barely successful victory when he finds himself in yet another room...and he's not alone. Danny finds himself in a deadly game of challenges with four other students: his cool college crush, Ash, his popular roommate, Maverick, a cool punk rock chick, Zelda, and Sam, the oldest of the students in this crazy and mysterious trial of tests and brains...with potentially catastrophic consequences. Who is putting them through this deadly series of skills and why? With secret codes and hidden levers, dark passageways and tunnels, walls that close in and floors that give way, the only way to find out is to survive. Outside the castle of captivity, a deadly pursuit of another sort is happening. An assassin has successfully completed his lone assignment of securing a red flash drive, only to find that the tables have been turned and the hunter has become the hunted: someone is out to end the assassin when they determine he's viewed the contents of the forbidden drive. The classified secrets of a dead scientist cannot be divulged at any costs and must be destroyed. And the betrayed assassin is on a mission to find out why. The Paradox of Heroes is a fast-paced adventure thriller that will keep readers guessing until the end.
