4-639 Clues: Cahills vs. Vespers series.
Eager to save their kidnapped family members, siblings Dan (thirteen) and Amy (sixteen), continue to take orders from their enemy, Vesper One. Crisscrossing the world, the Cahills search for ancient artifacts, while dodging Interpol and the conniving Wyoming siblings from the clue hunt. The high-stakes (if formulaic) plot moves quickly and builds suspense, while historical facts are woven into the stories. Review covers these 39 Clues: Cahills vs. Vespers titles: The Dead of Night and A King's Ransom.
