James Patterson's Treasure Hunters: Secret of the Forbidden City plunges readers into a thrilling globetrotting adventure with the intrepid Kidd family. This latest installment in the series raises the stakes higher than ever before.
Fresh from their previous exploits, the Kidd siblings find themselves entangled in a high-stakes negotiation with the Chinese government. Their goal? To recover a priceless artifact that could be the key to rescuing their mother from captors in Cyprus. But nothing is ever simple for the Kidds, and soon they're racing against time to unearth not one, but two seemingly impossible-to-find treasures.
As if the pressure wasn't already mounting, a new villain emerges on the scene, adding another layer of complexity to the Kidds' mission. With their freedom at stake and powerful forces working against them, the siblings must rely on their wits, skills and unbreakable family bond to overcome the challenges ahead.
Secrets of The Forbidden City is a fast-paced novel full of clues, narrow escapes, and an awesome globe-trotting adventure. I really think this book has to be one of the best books in the Treasure Hunters series. With new clues and details along the way that will have even the reader trying to figure out these mysteries. I would recommend this book to anyone aged 10-15, especially for those who enjoy novels with pictures along the way.
