The first book in the #1 bestselling phenomenon sends readers around the world on the hunt for the 39 Clues!

Minutes before she died Grace Cahill changed her will, leaving her decendants an impossible decision: "You have a choice - one million dollars or a clue."

Grace is the last matriarch of the Cahills, the world's most powerful family. Everyone from Napoleon to Houdini is related to the Cahills, yet the source of the family power is lost. 39 Clues hidden around the world will reveal the family's secret, but no one has been able to assemble them. Now the clues race is on, and young Amy and Dan must decide what's important: hunting clues or uncovering what REALLY happened to their parents.

This was a great book! It was action-packed and full of adventure, so I did not want to put the book down. Amy and Dan are awesome characters. You can't forget Nellie! I would recommend this book to people who love mystery and treasure hunts.

Rick Riordan always gave me surprises throughout his stories. I would totally recommend this any friend or family.

Instead of going to each book and describing them, i'll put all my thoughts on this. I LOVED THIS SERIES! I didnt get to finish the last 1/3 of the series because the library didnt have them at all, but this book was so intresting! Every detail was astonishing! I surely reccomend this series!

I love the entire The 39 Clues series, and this was a great start.
