Synopsis:
Nil and Beth are two young high school students who are involved in a kinky cyber game: a game of scrabble Internet. But what initially seemed a challenge surfer, is slowly picking up a particular aspect and dangerous for the players.
Then the couple is obsessed with the game and is staring at the computer. Without realizing it, everything becomes a real scary story when young people are tying the two ropes between successive moves of the game and bizarre murders that appear in the press. Completely trapped in the game, there comes a time when they can no longer retreat. Should try to solve puzzles and word games to win the game and, perhaps, to save his life.
During play, the players are also struggling to understand in the midst of complicity but also blame. A relationship that is at the border of the fine line between friendship and love. Another challenge to be faced.

Opinion:
A boy and a girl, one letters and other sciences. But they are friends forever. The two have engaged in organizing a Scrabble championship, the famous game of words, in the town library. At the same time, they begin to play a game subhastate, in which each player proposes a possible shot with the same letters and find the best score score points on the Internet. The problem? is mortal. The player who loses the run or trying to escape is killed the next day.
The truth is that it is a book that combines many different aspects of making a great novel. We find the police or murder or deduction some action, love between friends is actually more than that and many puns, and an interesting game of Scrabble with a freak organizer.
can ask for more? It's quick and easy reading.
Bet is a stubborn girl, square (mentality) and list. Makes technical high school but also likes the letters (I felt a little identifiable ... xD). Nil is of letters, is smart, handsome and plays basketball. It is a little confused, though. Not seem to stick very much but I think they make a good couple ^ ^
The truth is that I liked the whole book and finish is fine. The only small "defect", but really no big deal, is that he found it a bit predictable. I also would have liked another romantic scene, but I think the author nailed it enough with the lifestyle of youths of this age with these characteristics. Sorry but the book is only in Catalan. A book of this kind is difficult to translate it, both for the pun, no longer makes sense, as for fame I guess I would have. But if you can read it, do it because they will spend a good time:)
best thing about the book?
The ease with which mixed everyday life of two young police with a case full of puns ...
Worst thing about the book?
Nil That is fixed in both Mary (the librarian, who is very good) ... although almost all the guys are that shallow ...
