So, here we are in the middle of the great TEN (by Gretchen McNeil) Cover Reveal Scavenger Hunt! In case you’re just tuning in now, here’s a quick recap of the scavenger hunt. Each of the ten days, a new clue is revealed on a new blog. Follow the trail to gather all the clues, leading to the final cover reveal on February 24th…and also giving everyone the chance to win a fabulous prize.

What’s TEN about?

And their doom comes swiftly.

It was supposed to be the weekend of their lives – three days on Henry Island at an exclusive house party. Best friends Meg and Minnie each have their own reasons for wanting to be there, both of which involve Kamiak High’s most eligible bachelor, T.J. Fletcher. But what starts out as a fun-filled weekend turns dark and twisted after the discovery of a DVD with a sinister message: Vengeance is mine.

Suddenly, people are dying and the teens are cut off from the outside world. No electricity, no phones, no internet, and a ferry that isn’t scheduled to return for two days. As the deaths become more violent and the teens turn on each other, can Meg find the killer before more people die? Or is the killer closer to her than she could ever imagine?

What’s the clue?

Where to go next?

Tomorrow, the next clue will be revealed from Lauren at 365 Days of Reading! (And if you missed the beginning, go check out Gretchen’s blog for the first clue.) You can also add TEN on Goodreads by clicking here.

What’s the PRIZE?

This is a pretty awesome prize, guys. The winner will receive a signed and annotated copy of the unbound galley of TEN! This will be one-of-a-kind and out even before the ARC. Seriously, I want this.

And there you go. That’s your clue for Saturday, February 18th. Good luck!
