200s: How does someone disappear on the London Eye?
200s: How does someone disappear on the London Eye?
1.32am. Ted and his sister Kat watch their cousin Salim get on board the London Eye. The pod rises from the ground, high above the city.
12.02am. The pod lands and the doors open. Everyone exits – everyone but Salim.
Has he spontaneously combusted? (Ted’s theory.)
Has he been kidnapped? (Aunt Gloria’s theory.)
Is he even still alive? (The family’s unspoken fear.)
Even the police are baffled – so it’s up to Ted, whose brain runs on its own unique operating system, to solve this mystery and find Salim.
Teaming up with Kat, Ted follows a trail of clues across London – while time ticks dangerously by…
“My favourite thing to do in London is to fly the Eye.
“On a clear day you can see for 25 miles in all directions because you are in the largest observation wheel every built, You are sealed into one of the 32 capsules with the strangers who were next to you in the queue, and when they close the doors, the sound of the city is cut off.”
