There are people who cannot imagine their life without adventures. In the "Secret Society of Nerds" the boy responds to the invitation to participate in the extreme adventures on a mountain with the strange name Pidstava (Ukrainian word for “Prank”).

That a trap was waiting for him in the extreme adventure camp? What happened at top of the mountain? Did the Bluefaces leave their secret bases on Earth? And finally, what is hidden in the "places of power" among the ancient megaliths-cromlechs stones?
