Priceless

Crime Travelers #3

by Paul Aertker

Lucas Benes faces his greatest challenge yet when he finds a secret message from his mother hidden inside a sunken cargo container. In a near-death scuba diving experience, Lucas and the New Resistance kids learn that Good Company CEO Siba G�nerro -- along with her newest and most beautiful Curukians -- is planning a massive art heist. Lucas and friends scour the Spanish countryside looking for clues. But to unravel the mysteries of both the robbery and the cryptic message, Lucas must first discover the only thing that is worth more than priceless.

"If it's opposite day, it could already be opposite of opposite, which would be confusing." If you find this line puzzling, then you might understand why the kids of the New Resistance are able to rattle the Good Company yet again in Priceless.

This funny and exciting middle-grade series with short chapters is perfect for middle and elementary school reading lists, holiday gifts, and travel guides for children. Parents, teachers, and librarians will appreciate the action- adventure, the worldwide geography, and appropriate language for ages 9 - 14. Collect all three!

Loved pacing of this book - knew right away what Lucas's mission entailed. Amazing dialogue for middle grade - authentic and funny. Loved the international aspects, learned so much without it ever seeming forced. Great middle grade read. Could see this as a movie for that age group.
