The New York Times bestselling author of the Seven Wonders series and of books in the 39 Clues
series Peter Lerangis brings us the hair-raising edge-of-your-seat second installment of the
Max Tilt trilogy. When thirteen-year-old Max Tilt stumbled across his
great-great-great-grandfather Jules Verne's unfinished unpublished manuscript The Lost
Treasures he thought he had the answer to all his problems but nothing in life is ever that
easy. With his mom's illness getting worse again Max needs to figure out a way to save his
family-now more than ever. So Max and his cousin Alex revisit The Lost Treasures and they find
a clue that just might be the key to a cure. It's the story of Verne's seemingly impossible
recovery from a near-fatal gunshot wound. Somehow after being shot Verne didn't just survive
he thrived. And the book hints that he was only able to do so after collecting magical healing
elements that he'd saved from a race around the world. Piecing together hints from Verne's
Around the World in 80 Days and his lost manuscript Max and Alex realize there's a way to save
Max's mom if they're daring enough to try. It's a race against time in the second installment
of the action-packed adventure series from master storyteller and New York Times bestselling
author Peter Lerangis.
