I love it when series conclusions actually do not disappoint! The Final Gambit takes us back to the basics of book one. Follow the yellow brick road, also known as the puzzle trail. One clue leads to the next leads to the next leads to the next… Do you see where I’m going with this? I’ll stand by my statement that this is my new favorite young adult mystery series. I’m very very excited for this summer’s upcoming spin-off series to follow Jamie and Grayson!
