Four mystery/thriller children’s book creators find themselves trapped in a game show. The only escape is to compete a series of tasks that will push them to their limits.

Adrian Beck, Samera Kamaleddine, Christopher Nielsen and A.L. Tait go head-to-head in an epic game show to test their skills in storytellling, drawing, spelling, book knowledge and more. Watch authors solve crimes and create alibis live. Witness sketch artist competitions and more. Of course, they’ll need lots of help from the audience, so come prepared to participate. Think Guy Montgomery’s Spelling Bee meets Taskmaster but much more mysterious. Hosted by Nathan Luff.
