As the new Keepers of the School, sixth-graders Ben and Jill must decipher a handful of clues written as maritime riddles to save their school from demolition by a greedy company. - Simon and Schuster
Time is ticking as the countdown to total school demolition continues. But in addition to deciphering maritime clues that could save the building, Ben Pratt and his friend Jill have to stay one step ahead of Lyman, the snake posing as the school janitorâwho will do anything to preserve the $30 million development deal that pays his salary.
The second book in this riveting six-book series is as action-packed as the first one, culminating in a faceoff between Ben and Lyman. âAfter five bells sound, time to sit downâ makes for a good riddle, but Ben also knows when itâs time to stand upâ¦for Oakes School and for himself.
