Horn Book Review

In Nest, Amy and Dan learn some unpleasant truths about their family's lineage while trying to evade the Holts in South Africa (among other places). Code finds the sibs dramatically separated in China. Warning takes them to the Caribbean--and a showdown with the man in black. The series continues to spit out compulsively readable, if slight, tales of adventure. [Review covers these 39 Clues titles: The Emperor's Code, The Viper's Nest, and Storm Warning.] Copyright 2010 of The Horn Book, Inc. All rights reserved.
