About
Acroonis, a twelve-year-old girl with red braids, enters an English private boarding school and immediately finds herself in the middle of a detective story. Her roommate's letters, belonging to a diplomat's daughter, have disappeared. While unraveling the secrets of Finly College, Acroonis discovers how encryption works and learns about the schemes of hackers—computer intruders.
A charming physics teacher and Acroonis's father, who dreams of losing weight, explain to her how a quantum computer works—the most dangerous weapon in a hacker's hands. Meanwhile, the historic English town where Acroonis studies becomes the arena for a confrontation between an international terrorist organization and the United Kingdom's special services.
“And the most unimaginable mixtures of two juices bubble in the glasses. But before shipping its products to customers, the factory performs another amazing operation on them called quantum measurement. Can you imagine the factory director walking along a row of glasses with a magic wand in hand? As soon as he touches a glass with the wand, the mixture in the glass turns into pure strawberry or pure apple juice.”
