All that impossible space /
How do you solve a 70-year-old mystery when you can't even figure out your own life? Lara Laylor is doing her best to navigate the mysteries of Year 10: boys, enigmatic new students, and a drama queen friend who always takes centre stage. When new history teacher Mr Grant gives her a special assignment to investigate the Somerton Man mystery, Lara finally starts to feel like she's standing in the spotlight. Found dead on an Adelaide beach in 1948, the labels cut out of his clothes, the Somerton Man has intrigued people for years. Was he a spy? A criminal? And then Mr Grant goes missing...and Lara is convinced that his disappearance is part of a wider conspiracy. Has her obsession with the Somerton Man developed her powers of deduction? Or is Lara being led into a mystery darker than even she expects.
