About this ebook

Tensions run high in the explosive 8th book of 39 Clues, the #1 New York Times bestselling series.

One belief has sustained fourteen-year-old Amy Cahill and her younger brother, Dan, on their hunt for the 39 Clues: They are the good guys. But then a shocking discovery about their parents shatters everything Amy and Dan think they know, dividing the two siblings for the first time ever. When Dan disappears in a country of more than a billion people, Amy has to make a terrible choice - find the next Clue . . . or find her younger brother.

Ratings and reviews

I LOVED this book. It was SOOOO intense. Every moment, I was literally on the edge of my seat. Although China may not be the most exotic country in the world there is to visit, Korman made it seem like it. I had a lot of fun reading this book. If you are a fan of the 39 Clues series, and did not like the first one in the series he wrote (One False Note, Book 2) I GUARANTEE IT! (just like the informercials) that you will enjoy this book.

The 39 Clues first series is my most favorite popular book. :-)

Great read. Action all the way thru!
