Trackers by Patrick Carman

Trackers by Patrick Carman is about Adam Henderson, a self-proclaimed tracker (NOT a hacker). Adam and his gang, Emily, Finn, and Lewis, are all experts with technology. They work together, developing high-tech gadgets, computer programming, and running special operations to test their skills. Adam works in his dad's computer repair shop and has built his own space where he can command the team - the Vault. During the day Adam reprograms and fixes computers for his dad, but during his free time, Adam is busy perfecting his gadgets, running training exercises with his crew, and developing and coding computer programs. Unfortunately, someone outsmarts Adam and blindsides him, infiltrating the Vault and stealing all of his designs and plans. Now it is up to Adam and his friends to find out who stole their hard work and what they have to do to get it back. The adventure takes them places they never thought they'd go - putting them all into very real danger.

This is the first book of Patrick Carman's new series, and it's AWESOME! The book is told through a series of interview questions with a police detective and Adam. The interview is supplemented with videos for the reader to watch on iTunes or on the Trackers web interface: http://www.trackersinterface.com/. You'll need the passwords to watch the videos and see the supplemental materials on the sight. I can't wait to find out what happens to Adam and his crew in the second book!
