Publisher's summary

The Kidds - treasure hunting family extraordinaire - are heading to China on a journey that will lead them beyond the Great Wall and into the underbelly of Berlin.

Bick and Beck Kidd are desperately trying to secure the ancient Chinese artifact that will buy their mother's freedom from renegade pirates. But when the kidnappers force them to locate an even greater treasure, priceless paintings stolen by Nazis, the Kidds must rely on their own cunning and experience to outwit the criminals - all while their mom's life is on the line.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your My Library section along with the audio.

Family fun!

This was a great story of adventure and a family working together and siblings caring for each other and watching out for each other was a nice change for kids to hear. My kids and I loved listening to these books in the van as we go to activities they have. The narrator was great, did lots of voices and really brought the story to life.

Amazing characterization from Bryan Kennedy

This is the third treasure hunters series that I've listened to with the kids in the car while driving between activities.
My twin 11 year-olds love the story. I love the sense of adventure and the shorter, bite sized chapters that work very well when on a commute. The PDF has loads of fantastic artwork that add to the experience.

And finally - I don't know how Bryan Kennedy does it. But he's able to bring a unique voice to every character, weaving between them without missing a beat. I'm in awe of his performance with this series.

Great fun for the kids.
