4-6Case File 13 series.
Visiting an archaeological site, "Monsterteers" Nick, Angelo, and Carter hope to uncover evidence that aliens built the Mayan pyramids. Instead, they encounter a power-hungry archaeologist; a series of Indiana Jones–esque tests and traps; and mummies, deities, and demons of Mayan myth. A fast pace, silly humor, and suspenseful problem-solving make this fourth entry another more-wacky-than-scary supernatural adventure. An appended note gives context.
