Book Launch: The Locked Room - An Evening with Adam Cece
Event description
Join us for a special evening as we launch Adam Cece's new book, The Locked Room - a The Breakfast Club meets escape room thriller. Adam will be in conversation with fellow author and escape room designer, Leanne Yong!
The Locked Room begins with four teens trapped in a room. When they get the door unlocked, another puzzle awaits, and the danger only increases. Will they escape with their lives and face their deepest fears?
Free to attend, but RSVP essential.
ABOUT THE BOOK:
Andy and three other kids wake up in a locked room.
The room has no windows, but it has a locked door, with a countdown clock above it.
They have less than an hour to figure out how to get out of this room. But when they do . . .? There’s another locked room, and more locked doors. And they can’t go back.
High concept, high stakes, high emotions – this story packs a punch and you won’t be able to put it down.
ABOUT THE AUTHORS:
Adam Cece is an award-winning author of children’s books, including Wesley Booth Super Sleuth, Twin Spin and the hilarious Huggabie Falls series, which has been published worldwide.

He is a South Australian Premier’s Reading Challenge Ambassador, mentor, workshop facilitator and manuscript assessor, and visits schools and libraries delivering fun, interactive talks focused on being an author, the craft of writing, getting published, solving mysteries, and how to write a cracking shopping list.
Leanne Yong is an Asian-Australian author of Singaporean and Malaysian heritage who loves writing the diaspora experience into contemporary and fantasy YA fiction. She started her career as an IT business analyst (boring) and is now an escape room creator (much more interesting). She has designed internationally recognised games with her partner that weave unique puzzle mechanics with narrative. She currently resides in Sydney for work, but Brisbane is where her home, family and heart (i.e. her cat) are. Two Can Play That Game is her debut novel.
