Andrea's Take

Dan and Amy Cahill are not your ordinary kids. In fact, they belong to one of the most powerful families in history. One day, they are given a choice: walk away with a million dollars; or get the first of the 39 clues which put together, will make you the most powerful person ever alive. Amy and Dan take the clue - and begin a very dangerous race.

This book is filled with action-packed scenes. I marvel at Amy and Dan as they race around the world in this race. Amy and Dan also visit a few historic momentums and look into some famous people. It is interesting to learn about these! Read on if you want to know what happens next.

If you were given that choice, which would you choose?

• Take a million dollars and walk away
• Take the first clue
