The Eureka Key by Sarah L. Thomson
This book is for people who like it when American history is incorporated into a modern fictitious book. If you liked A Crack in the Sea, you may also like this book. This is also a book for readers who like mysteries that aren't too easy to figure out. The Eureka Key is the first in Thomson's, "Secrets of the Seven," series.
What the Book's All About
When Sam learns about a contest to solve puzzles, he's all in, especially when he finds out that the winner gets an all-expenses-paid tour across America. He enters and solves every puzzle with relative ease. When it comes to the history portion, he is no buff, so he's surprised when he is one of the winners. The other is Martina, who is Sam's opposite. She's all about facts and mentions them all of the time. Accompanying Sam and Martina on the trip is Theo, a strong but silent type who turns out to be a descendant of George Washington. Sam soon figures out that this is no simple trip. He and Martina were recruited to follow clues that the Founding Fathers laid to find the keys they left. It also becomes apparent that they aren't the only ones searching. Who is this mysterious competitor? Why are the keys so special?

- Originally doesn't like the nickname Sam gives her, "Marty."
