Ted and Kat’s cousin, Salim, has come to visit London before heading to New York with his mum. The cousins are eager to do something touristy, and they decide upon a ride on the London Eye.
When Salim boards the Eye, but never exits the ride, a mystery is born. It is up to Ted and his clever autistic mind to solve the mystery.
In terms of a mystery for children, I think this is good. Ted is a likable and intelligent sleuth. I also like the autistic twist to his narration; Ted is so literal about absolutely everything.
