Elias and Ty have been best friends ever since they discovered a shared love of exploring abandoned places: Elias, for old treasures and artifacts, and Ty, for hauntings and other strange events he can film to build his popularity. So when rumors start spreading about a nearby vacant lot and the odd lights seen there at night, the two friends know they need to investigate. To their surprise, Elias and Ty find a bloody tent buried in the lot. They wonder who put it there, and why? Their investigation leads the friends to uncover mysteries even stranger than ghosts, and what starts as a simple search for answers turns into a dangerous mission when it becomes clear there are people who want to keep the lot’s secrets buried. Elias and Ty must race to uncover and expose these secrets before others can stop them from speaking out for good.

It's important to begin by noting the publisher, North Star, specializes in Hi-Lo readers. Originally, I was disappointed in the writing though enjoyed the plot. After some research, I realized why the writing was simplified. I think this will be an excellent addition to school libraries who have reluctant readers or readers who are below level but need older content.

"Exposed" has solid characters with good story-arcs and provides resolution to it's main issues. Originally thinking they are investigating a murder, Elias and Ty find themselves in the middle of a decades-old environmental issue. With road blocks along the way, they must work together to face people and corporations who do not want their deeds exposed.

Readers will find the plot immediately engaging, the book difficult to put down, and Elias and Ty easy to relate to.
