In Too Deep (The 39 Clues #6)
by
Jude Watson
A hint from their parents’ past puts Amy and Dan on the trail of secrets their grandmother Grace would NEVER have wanted them to know. Awful memories begin to crowd in on Amy, just as her enemies circle closer. How far would she go to protect Dan? How much of a Cahill is she prepared to be? Perhaps Grace was right – some secrets are better left buried.

I'm going to give a generic review of the series. Basically because I'm lazy and don't want to write 39 reviews. Okay, 11.
We finally read Book 1. And then because we liked it so well, the entire series. One son (age 12) has read them all, the second son (also age 12) is on Book 2. And son #3 (age 8) will be starting as soon as he finishes his current book.

The truth about the death of Amy and Dan's parents has finally and slowly sinking into Amy's mind as she was forced by Irina Spasky (their ex-KGB cousin) to remember the unfortunate events that had happened during that night.

Kay, so I doubt the ten-year-olds are having this problem, but Scholastic is publishing the books too quickly! I'm having trouble keeping up!

and now, after Russia, here come's AUSTRALIA!!! So they met up with their Uncle that made them remind of their Dad and even thought of considering him to be, well, their Dad. So here, in this book, we will find out how Amy and Dan's parents died. Were they murdered? Did their Mom really went in JUST for their Dad? Visions kept on flashing on Amy's mind and she's not telling her brother. It all started when Ian called her to meet for her to know what really happened to her parents. And when she g...more
This is my first time reading any book in the 39 Clues series, and yet in reading book 6 I found myself understanding the main story line. This was a great read in my opinion as Amy and Dan found out what happened to their parents and who did it as they continued to look for the 39 clues in Australia. They'll find the some of the world's poisonous snakes and spiders are half their worries.

I like this series for several reasons. There's humor mixed in with mystery. I think it is fun, too, that different authors are taking turns writing about the same characters. Overall, they do a good job of keeping the characters consistent with themselves. I have noticed that some authors have different styles - some more funny, some focus more on the characters and others more on the action, etc. In this book, the perspective is temporarily from one of the adult character's viewpoint rather th...more
While good, this was an interesting departure from the plotlines we've come to expect from the series. With no definite clue to trace, Amy and Dan head to Australia on a whim. There they meet up with their father's best friend. Shep is a bush pilot who seems to know everyone and everything, and is more than willing to house Amy, Dan, and Nellie for a few days. Soon enough though, the Kabras, Holts, and Irina are hot on Amy and Dan's trail.

Unlike the first five books in which the hunt felt like a fast-paced game to beat the competition in finding the 39 clues, Book 6 focuses on family and ends in a more serious tone. Things turn deadly, and fourteen year-old Amy begins to have flashbacks of the night her parents were killed in a house fire. Just like its title, this one pulls you in deep as we get closer to the finish line.

4.5 stars. I think this author has done the best job of any of the authors writing books for the ten-part 39 Clues series. This book was awesome, and looking back at my reviews of the previous installments, I apparently thought Jude Watson's last book for this series was one of the best as well. I'd never heard of this author before, but the writing and pacing were solid and exciting; very well done.

This book is the sixth book in the 39 clue book series and is a wonderful addition to the entire series! Amy and Dan Cahill are on their way to Australia to find out what their parents were like when they were alive. The both didn’t know their parents very well when they died in a fire many years ago.

This book is perhaps the most dynamic. The introduction of the real villain, Isabel Kabra, is revealed, and, from reading the later novels, she has some issues. Big issues. As for the history, they sort of had a criminal named Bob Troppo as a placeholder to learn about Australia, rather than about that person. Dan and Amy are now traveling where their parents used to. They also discover that their parent's death was not accidental. For those that have moved on to the newer series, the Cahills v...more
Okay, these books are really starting to come into their own. Meaning, the momentum of the story is taking off and now I immediately go from one to the next. I think out of all the writers in this series Jude Watson is my favorite. She writes with meaning and lots of emotional value. With a couple other authors they write by just laying out the facts and events as they happen. Watson includes back story and motivation. Her style suits this story well by putting the "meat" in the "meat and potato...more
I was extremely impressed by this series. I started listening to the Maze of Bones audiobook while at work. I enjoy listening to young adult series as they aren't too difficult to follow while also concentrating on my computer. After listening to the Percy Jackson series 2 or 3 times I figured I'd give this Riordan book a try. I was pleasantly surprised to find a compelling mystery! The Cahill kids are likable protagonists on a bigger adventure then they could ever have imagined having in their...more
I have read all of the 39 Clues books so far and loved every one of them; this one was no exception. It is a fast and easy read with tension mounting and mysteries slowly beginning to come together. I like that we are beginning to see parts of the story from other characters points of view - Irina, Natalie, Nellie... This series has obviously been very well planned and each new author brings their own brilliance while somehow managing to keep the continuity.

In Too Deep is the sixth installment of The 39 Clues series and is written by Jude Watson, who also wrote the fourth book - Beyond the Grave. It begins with Dan and Amy Cahill after they wrap up their business in Russia in The Black Circle. The children travel to Australia, being as it is the last trip they knew their parents to take. Along with their au pair, Nellie Gomez, and Saladin the cat, they go Down Under to meet their father's cousin, Shep...more

Amy, Dan and Nellie are going to Sydney. Amy and Dan are both brothers and sisters and Nellie is their babysitters. They need to find their Uncle Shep and find the next clue for the 39 clues. They went through many conflicts and struggles. They need to fins the clue before the other Cahills find it. The other Cahills are evil and greedy and they are Amy and Dan's other family members. Uncle Shep help them travel to different places. This is a competition and the Cahills are competitive. The Cahi...more
In Too Deep the second book in the Kincaid Brides series caught my attention just as Out of Control the first book did. I found this book less chaotic. The caverns and fears are explored at a deeper level in this book. The characters were more developed for me. Due in part to being introduced to them in the first book. Evan and Audra speak to the heart of those who feel helpless and unsure of themselves. Each overcomes fears and finds courage in the Lord. As their marriage of convenience turns t...more
Amy and Dan have just arrived in Sydney, Austrailia. There, in their hunt for the next clue, almost get killed by a new competitor, Isabel Kabra. Who is coincidentaly, Amy and Dan's rivals, Ian and Natalie's mom. Right now Amy and Dan are right on the tail of the next clue, they just have to find the last person that had it, Robert Cahill Henderson. But Isabel is right on their tails. There is so much more danger and threts in this book than any of the other 39 clues books so far. All of Amy and...more
So I listened to this book at work and it kept me pretty entranced. Dan and Amy are trying to solve the riddle of the 39 clues. They have to find ingredients and measurements for a recipe that could make them the most powerful people on earth. But they are racing against many Cahill cousins, some of whom have murderous pasts and aren't afraid to kill again.

The continuation of the popular series, The 39 Clues. I really enjoyed this one! Dan and Amy are still on the search for 39 clues and in a race against relatives to find them. The setting is Australia, so you have sharks, the outback, surfing and more. Along the journey you read about what happened to Amy and Dan's parents, and who might've been behind their deaths. You see a different side to Irina, and find out that there may be more to Nellie than meets the eye. A terrific read, and a little...more

Australia, Indonesia, Amelia Earhart, planes. Trust No One - a phrase better left with the X-files. More clues about the fire that left Amy & Dan orphans. It was torturous trying to get through this one. In Too Deep is one of my least favorite of the series - it shares bottom ranking with The Sword Thief. So far, the first two are my favorites: The Maze of Bones and One False Note.
This book was very confusing to me, so I believe that it would be confusing to younger readers as well. As a teacher I would have to read the book slow and explain each part individually. Amy and her brother Dan go to Australia to go on a clue hunt to see what their mother and father knew about it. Since it takes place in a different country that would be harder to understand for children. They find a secret expedition that their parents went on from their cousin who lives there. It reminds Amy...more
I'm currently reading this book, and I'm really enjoying it pages by pages. Dan Cahill and Amy Cahill has to find secrets through their parents' past. It is basically like a mission they have to go in different countries. Through this book, there are also some conflicts along the way like Amy's necklace getting stolen by this kind woman who they talked to. I totally love this book 'In Too Deep (the 39clues)' because tragedies and risks are hidden behind the mission.. I gave four stars because it...more
