Chasing Vermeer by Blue Balliett

An interesting mystery with lots of twists and turns to keep you hooked.  Full of puzzles and codes, and plenty of things you have to figure out on your own.

Great book filled with a lot of suspense and mystery.  Recommended for teens who love adventure and action.
