This might be the coolest book ever

The Clock Without a Face: a hunt within a puzzle
within, a mystery within a building. Here's the
deal: There are real live emerald-studded thingies
buried in various holes across America. To find
them, you'll need to read and decipher the hidden
messages within the book. Buy it here and find
the emeralds before your neighbor beats you to it.

Found on McSweney's of course
