As newcomer to New Haven High School, Ciman (with a "C") and his plucky group of Conspiracy Club member friends, take on the task of uncovering the workings, influence, and hidden power of the world's most secret order. As they sort through the bizarre riddles surrounding the Illuminati, they are stunned to discover a trail of clues hidden within the fabric of society, including Skull and Bones, Knights Templar, Assassins, whistle blower accounts, and the local, on-campus museum-clues visible for all to see and yet ingeniously disguised by the pernicious cabal.

Even more startling, the museum curator, deeply involved in the secret society, has been guarding a breathtaking secret concerning the whole of the human population. Unless Ciman and the gang can decipher the maze-like puzzle-while avoiding the faceless adversary who shadows their every move-the explosive truth could be lost forever.

"Hailes delivers yet again with this pulse-pounding (and hilarious) adventure. His eccentric and well-written teens take on the oh-so-nefarious men (and women) behind the proverbial curtain, and the outcome is utter enjoyment!" -A.M. Rothschild

"A delightful masterpiece . . . Some of the most fun I've had with any book-all the twists, turns, and quips! There are much by way of conspiracy references, but delivered with a laugh and therefore worth exploring. A literal page turner in my

humble opinion. -J.P. Rockefeller
