From graphic novel superstar, former computer programming teacher, and New York Times-bestselling author Gene Luen Yang, Secret Coders is the first volume in a wildly entertaining series that combines logic puzzles and basic coding instruction with a page-turning mystery plot!

Using their wits and their growing prowess with coding, Hopper and her friend Eni are going to solve the mystery of Stately Academy no matter what it takes!
