I believe this book is my favorite of the Math Inspectors series. So much great math!!! Anyway, Stanley, Charlotte, Gertie and Felix are back again as seventh graders and they have an opportunity to solve a treasure hunt conceived of by the town's founder, Silas Raven. The clues to the location of the treasure all involve math. (Yay!) They follow the clues and end up at the treasure, only to have it snatched away by their nemesis, Macbeth. But wait... That couldn't really be the end. The Math Inspectors, English Club, History Club, Science Club, Chess Club, etc. all band together to figure out who Macbeth might be in order to capture the evil genius. Smile. A very satisfying book I am quite certain my great niece will enjoy when I hand it off to her.
