Hi All

Glad I found this site. Might help me solve a mystery that has been driving me crazy for the longest time.

In (probably) the mid 80's I received a book through my school book club.

Now things get vague

The book MAY have been part of a series.

The main character was male, and was investigating video games at a local video game parlour. Kids were mindlessly playing, and there was clearly a mind control element.

A character, who I believe was not the main character was injured and had to have his spleen removed. I distinctly remember that part as it mentioned the important role the spleen played.

I Believe the lead character MAY have rode a motor bike, and there may have been a love interest involved.

I know it is a massive long shot, but a long shot is better than none.

Thanks in advance

Todd
