I think my dad listened to it on audio when it came out in hardback and told me about it. Three sons, an inheritance, and their crazy old man who decides to make them prove themselves by burying himself and his "treasure" in a tomb for them to seek out and claim. Action-packed, psycho bad-guy, lots of jungle adventure, and even a little romance. A quote on the cover compares it to Indiana Jones and the <i>Amazing Race</i>, and it's not too far off. Fun stuff. <br/><br/><a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/list/1089750?utm_medium=api&utm_source=blog_review">View all my reviews.</a>
