The Mystery of the Kaleidoscopic Keychain

A pop star in peril. A coven in the woods. And a code magic can never hide.

The Three Investigators' anticipated vacation takes an unexpected turn when Pete and his friend Branko find a lost dog during an afternoon run near the Petrovic family's property in Jackson. The dog belongs to Odetta Dharmapuki, a famous pop star who lives nearby, and the boys - along with Branko, Mallory, and Pete's secret crush, Califia Garcia-Williams - resolve to return her to her owner at the end of their raft trip.

But when they meet Odetta, it's clear that there's more to this situation than a missing dog. Odetta's new boyfriend, Zachary Hughes, a developer at Apple, has recently been arrested for an altercation with a paparazzo. This incident is just the beginning of a deeper, more unsettling mystery. Someone with a high level of technical expertise is harassing Zachary - and by extension, Odetta - through sophisticated means, tracking their movements and compromising their privacy.

The Three Investigators quickly realize that they've stepped into something far more complex than a simple case of celebrity stalking. The clues are scattered, but some seem to point back to a mysterious group, a Wiccan coven known as Circle of the Mirror. What is Zachary hiding from his past at MIT? How does the failed technology company Memory Bank fit into the puzzle? What role do Odetta's kaleidoscopic light shows play in the harassment? And why are a cloaked woman and a homeless man living in a cave seemingly connected to it all?

Things escalate when Odetta's estate is firebombed, and the team is thrust into a dangerous rescue mission. Tensions rise as Mallory and Califia - disguised as members of the coven - join a secret ritual during the full moon, while Jupiter and Branko delve into the dark secrets lurking beneath in a basement.
