Winston Breen and his two best friends are back for another round of puzzle-solving adventure. This time, Winston's school has been selected to compete in a puzzle competition sponsored by the quirky snack-food maven Dmitri Simon (think Willy Wonka of the salty foods empire). The mystery this time: solving the six puzzles, and finding out who the cheater is who's been sabotaging the other teams.

In the first Winston Breen book, the puzzles were dropped in more or less at random in Winston's treasure hunt; here there's a more organic part of the story, and for obvious reasons. As a result, this volume is less gimmicky than its predecessor. The extra puzzles--the ones outside of the competition--are dropped in where Winston is killing time traveling from place to place, or while waiting for people, or in other such places, instead of (actual example from the first book, as best I remember) "I'm trapped in a burning basement, and here's the puzzle it reminds me of!"

As mysteries go, this is about my speed--I've always been a fan of puzzles but mysteries don't interest me much. This is the kind of book I'd have gravitated toward in 4th or 5th grade, when the inevitable Mystery Book Report came around. ( )
