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.

Aufgewachsen in den heiligen Hallen der mysteriösen ¿Gemeinschaft der Rätselmacher¿ weiß Clayton Stumper so einiges über verschlüsselte Botschaften, knifflige Puzzles und verwunschene Labyrinthe. Und über brillante Menschen jenseits der Achtzig, denn von einem Hort der Genialität hat sich Creighton Hall mehr und mehr zu einem intellektuell herausfordernden Seniorenheim entwickelt. Weniger versteht Clayton von Menschen seines Alters oder vom Leben außerhalb der Gemeinschaft. Das größte Mysterium ist für Clayton jedoch Clayton selbst: Woher kommt er? Wer sind seine Eltern?Ein letztes Rätsel, das ihm Pippa, die Vorsitzende der Gemeinschaft und seine Ziehmutter, nach ihrem Tod hinterlässt, verspricht endlich Antworten zu geben. Doch das wirkliche Leben stellt den ältesten Fünfundzwanzigjährigen der Welt vor so manche Herausforderung.
