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.

In the book The Maze Of Bones (39 Clues, No. 1) by Rick Riordan, Amy and Dan Cahill are just orphans who for some reason can't live with their rich grandmother, Grace Cahill. They live with their aunt who does't even care about them. One day Grace dies and in her will she says that the people in her family can either take one million dollars or they can get the first clue that can lead them to 38 other clues which can restore the Cahill family's power. Amy and Dan could always just walk away with one million dollars, but they take the challenge.
i really liked this series series ("39 clues") and the second series ("cahills vs vespers")got even more exciting, but i've kind of tired of keeping up with the 39 clues cycle. now there's "cahills unstoppable," and it's gotten exhausting. it's not that i hate the books, but 39 clues seems like it will never cease to end! i liked the characters dan and amy at first, but i wish each book was longer so that the series would stop. don't read this book unless you're prepared to follow a long, LONG journey....
Awesoe book i wish their was wayyyyyyyyy more books to the series
Cool
