The Impossible Race: Cragbridge Hall, volume 3
“Anjum said, “we’re in the lead, but let’s not act like it. Read the next clue as soon as you’ve got it, Malcolm.”
Malcolm’s Southern drawl came over the message, winded from the run. “All right, here it is: Treasure chest, Filter, Not yourself, Maiden’s hair.”
“You know what to do,” Anjum said. “Call out whatever may be a good guess.”
“Maybe it’s me,” Carol said. “I’ve got great hair, and I’m a maiden.”
“I asked for good guesses,” Anjum quipped back.
“Wow,” Carol said. “Don’t get grumpy. It’s bad for team morale.” Derick bit the inside of his cheek. He had insisted Carol be on the team and she was popping off whatever came to mind. Maybe it was how she dealt with the pressure. At least she had helped on the first clue.
“Maiden’s hair” sounded unique and kind of weird. Derick typed it into his rings then skimmed over the first entries. “Wait,” he said. “Maiden’s hair is also a name for a saltwater plant you can put in aquariums.”
