Welcome to the Year of the Great Seventh summer world tour!
We will be hopping from side to side of the globe helping Nate and Sophie find each other, but for that, we need you through the entire tour. Sophie and Nate need to meet at a secret location at the end of the blog tour, but since they don’t want anyone else to know where, they left the address in hidden code.
We will be giving you clues at each tour stop that will help you find the location. Also, at each blog tour stop, we will unveil a part of a picture that discloses the secret location.
These are the rules of the game:
- You’ll need to have read The Year of the Great Seventh to be able to follow the game, or at least, have some knowledge of what happens in the novel.
- You’ll need access to Google maps (Street View).
- At each blog tour stop we will reveal a sentence like this:
- You’ll need to put that address into Google maps, and using Street View, you need to work out which word is missing. In this case, the answer would the following:
- We are only interested in the first letter of the word: “S”.
- The next day, we will plot that letter into the four words that will hint the secret location, and we will give you the new sentence. For example:
- Additionally, there will be a photo of the secret location at each blog tour stop. At the first stop, it will be totally blacked out, but as we go along the tour, we will start unveiling different parts.
- When we get to the last stop, with the photo and the four words that we will have deciphered, you’ll be on your own to find the secret location.
- The first 5 people who send an e-mail to greatseventhtour@outlook.com with the correct solution will win a free hardcopy of The Year of the Great Seventh.
- We will only disclose the winners after the last stop of the blog tour, and will strictly follow the email entries by date/time received to award the books to the first 5 people who discover the secret location. Please remember to include your first name, last name, and address in the email. We will not use this information for any other purpose.
- You can write comments on the blog post. We are okay with people helping each other; however, the first 5 people to send the correct answer win the books.
- If you change your mind about the secret location, you can send more than one email.
- There can only be one winner per address, and you can only win a maximum of 1 book per person.
Good luck to everyone!

Yesterday’s solution:
(Paul) showed Sophie a glimpse of what her life at NYU would be like, if she chose a normal teenager life over Nate.
Today we will do three different sentences:
Sophie’s NYU tour started in the (60 Washington Square S, New York, NY 10012 –you just need the name of the building).
(London, SE23 3AD, U.K. – the street that correlates to this zip code) was hitting on Cat Woman at Ethan’s party.
‘The salvation to both lies beneath’ meant the (106 Fulton St, New York, NY 10038, United States – second word on the building) of Armenia was supposed to side with Mark Antony and Cleopatra in the Battle of Actium.
