The image shows a young boy with a rather sombre expression sitting at his desk and studying. Next to him are a few books stacked in a corner. The image doesn't make clear if he stood down to study or is simply wasting his time scribbling but all students can relate to this. On the desk there's also a photo frame, a tiny plant and a couple of uneaten cookies.

Your task today is to spot the mistake in the image in five seconds. A little heads up: this brain teaser is slightly nerdy and only those who have read the classics will be able to crack this one. Are you ready? Tik tok, the clock is ticking.

Divide the images into squares and work your way into the centre of the image starting from the corners. Good luck!

Whether you failed at the challenge or not, now you're a step closer to cracking more brain teasers in the future. The answer is this: the book titled 'The Hound of the Baskervilles' was written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and not Charles Dickens as shown in the image.
