The Case of the Digital Deception

Club CSI #5

by Ellie O'Ryan

When there’s a mystery surrounding a popular online game, the Club kids use digital forensics to solve a case of foul play .

Ben, Corey, and Hannah have their work cut out for them when Whitney, the most popular girl in school, comes to Club for help. At first her case seems easy to crack—someone has been tampering with Whitney’s locker, and since her best friend Alyssa has the combination, she is a likely suspect.

But nothing is as simple as it seems, especially once the team learns that other strange things are happening around Whitney. Mysterious charges from a popular Internet drawing game have shown up on Whitney’s parents’ credit card. Whitney swears she didn’t authorize the charges, so who did? The digital drama increases when Club launches an online investigation—and to uncover the culprit, they’ll have to go undercover as players of the game!

★3,5

Pembaca muda mungkin bisa lebih menikmati drama di sini. Tapi, setelah permasalahan pertama selesai, ceritanya jadi lebih bisa dinikmati bagiku.

Seri yang pengarangnya beda sendiri. Bagusnya, ia mengingat kembali penggunaan beberapa ilmu dan informasi dari buku-buku sebelumnya. Ada juga interaksi Ricky dan Charlie yang pernah bekerja sama di buku ke-4.

Beberapa kesalahan:
1. Mrs. Gomez bersiap menutup perpustakaan di hal. 57 -> padahal habis itu masih ada yang pakai komputer sampai sekitar dua jam setelahnya -> lebih tepat kalau pakai kalimat 'menyelesaikan shift kerjanya'.
2. Whitney mendaftar akun game 'mungkin tiga minggu lalu' di hal. 73 -> sementara di hal. 75 tertulis 'bertanggal tepat tiga bulan yang lalu' dan jarak keduanya itu jauh.

Keunikan cara penemuan informasi masing-masing anggota dari:
Ben: buku
Corey: interaksi
Hannah: rumor

Untuk tahu lebih banyak pendapatku soal kelebihan dan kekurangan serial ini, bisa dilihat di ulasanku untuk buku pertama.
