1-3Greetings from Somewhere series.
Illustrated by
Marcos Calo.
Twins Ella and Ethan head with their travel-writer mom and homeschooling dad to Mumbai, where they track down a spice shop saboteur (Spices); and to Machu Picchu, where they find a missing toy snake and hunt for an Inca sculpture (Bridge). The travel guide–like highlights add some flavor to the otherwise standard chapter-book mysteries. Black-and-white illustrations are included. Glos. Review covers these Greetings from Somewhere titles: The Mystery Across the Secret Bridge and The Mystery of the Suspicious Spices.
