Description : Is someone trying to give the children clues to a real-life mystery through a computer game?

Henry, Jessie, Violet, and Bennie Alden, the Boxcar Children, have become experts at Ringmaster, a computer game, and the creators ask them to help test the new game, Ringmaster II. But when they do, clues about situations and people in the game are surprisingly familiar. Is there something wrong? The children are determined to find out!

The Boxcar Children Series was created by Gertrude Chandler Warner, a teacher, when she realized that there were few, if any, books for children that were both easy and fun to read. She drew on her experiences in writing the mysteries. As a child she had spent hours watching trains near her home and often dreamed about what it would be like to live in a caboose or freight car. In each story, she chose a special setting and introduced unusual or eccentric characters who like the unpredictable, stressing the Alden's independence and resourcefulness. Miss Warner lived in Putnam, Massachusetts until her death in 1979.

Reader Aimee Lilly has been involved in the broadcasting and radio drama field since 1989. She has read audiobooks by many best-selling authors, including Elizabeth George, Janette Oke, and Francine Rivers. She portrayed Hattie Durham in the Dramatic Audio Version of the best-selling series Left Behind.
