Two queer teens embark on a once-in-a-lifetime European treasure hunt and fall in love. Perfect for fans of Adam Silvera and Emily in Paris.

Nineteen-year-old Rian Chance has always been good at solving puzzles. Growing up, each year on his birthday, Rian’s dad would put together intricate puzzles, treasure hunts, and clever anagrams for them to solve. All of this dad and son bonding actually turned out to be the perfect foundation to launch Rian’s website, a space dedicated to solving seemingly impossible puzzles—and the occasional Wordle.  

Along with his best friend and inventor, Elsie, Rian spends his days in their shared San Francisco home office deliberating over clues and patterns. Even with the success of his business, Lost Founders, Rian feels stuck, unsure how he really should be spending his life. He’s tired of waking up next to guys whose names he can't remember and spending all weekend getting drunk at Oasis. There has to be more to his life than this. 

When the most-watched cable news network in the country—the Great America News Network (GAN)—is hacked and a mysterious video announcing some sort of epic worldwide treasure hunt worth eleven million dollars is played on a loop every seven minutes and thirty-six seconds, Rian decides to put his skills to the ultimate test. That is, if he can keep his unchecked crush on childhood friend turned nationally beloved soap opera star Aidyn Blaze in check.
