Clayton Stumper ist ein Rätsel. Aufgewachsen in den heiligen (und etwas staubigen) Hallen der mysteriösen ¿Gemeinschaft der Rätselmacher¿ weiß er mit seinen Anfang zwanzig so einiges über verschlüsselte Botschaften, verwunschene Labyrinthe und geniale Menschen jenseits der achtzig. Weniger versteht er von Menschen seines Alters oder vom Leben außerhalb des alten Hauses im verschlafenen Bedfordshire. Das größte Mysterium ist für Clayton jedoch Clayton selbst: Wer ist er eigentlich? Woher kommt er? Und wer hat ihn vor 23 Jahren auf den Stufen der ¿Gemeinschaft der Rätselmacher¿ ausgesetzt?Als seine Ziehmutter Pippa Allsbrock, ihres Zeichens unangefochtene Königin der Kreuzworträtsel und Vorsitzende der Gesellschaft, stirbt, hinterlässt sie ihm ein letztes Rätsel, dessen Lösung Clayton nicht nur die Frage nach seiner Herkunft beantworten, sondern ihm auch den Weg ins Leben weisen soll. Doch die echte Welt ohne doppelten Boden stellt den wohl ältesten 23-jährigen der Welt vor so manche Herausforderung - und so beginnt das Abenteuer seines Lebens.
