4-6Ashtown Burials series.
Siblings Cyrus and Antigone Smith abruptly become heirs of a dangerous man with dangerous tools. Bewildered and beleaguered by shadowy villains, they're whisked away to a secretive, barely less-treacherous society for world explorers--which they must survive to save their family. Quirky characters, adventure, murder, and magical artifacts are just a few highlights in this breathlessly paced series opener.
