When a small movement of the head wasn’t enough, he’d scribble a brief note on his whiteboard.įrom my review: “Seven Riddles to Nowhere is a blast, taking the reader on an exciting tour of Chicago streets and churches, while characters gain insight into mysteries and symbols of our faith as they struggle to solve riddles. Harris would talk, and Kam would stand there dumbly, shaking and nodding his head at the appropriate times. He knew exactly how this after-school meeting would go. “You’ll need to see me after school again today.”Īgain? Kam’s heart sank as he lowered his eyes to his desk. Harris eyed him over the rim of her tortoise-shell glasses. This, however, did not stop his teacher from asking him to stick around after class. Kameron Boyd hadn’t spoken a word in school for seven years. But creepy men in trench coats won’t stop them! They’re on a quest–not only to keep the school open, but to help Kam recover his voice. Their journey takes them through the churches of Chicago to decipher the hidden meanings in artwork all while avoiding the mysterious men following them. With the school’s bully as one of the other potential heirs, Kam and his friends race to solve the riddles first. As the school faces financial distress, Kam learns he is one of many potential heirs to a fortune large enough to keep his school open. It’s the only school where they’ve made life as a selective mute somewhat bearable. I am a member of the Catholic Writers’ Guild, and this month, the CWG is touring Amy Cattapan’s book, “7 Riddles to Nowhere.” It is a CWG Seal of Approval winner and a totally fun story! Seventh grader Kameron Boyd must be the first to solve seven riddles involving churches in Chicago in order to inherit a fortune and save his school from closing.Īll seventh grader Kameron Boyd wants to do is keep his little Catholic school from closing.
