THE MEDUSA PLOT - Tomorrow, August 30th!!!

39 Clues fans have been champing at the bit for the second series to start, and the day is finally here. Tomorrow THE 39 CLUES: CAHILLS VS. VESPERS begins with my opening shot, BOOK 1: THE MEDUSA PLOT. And the all-new better-than-ever website premieres - check it out at www.the39clues.com!

It's time for the truth to come out. For 500 years, the Cahill family has dominated history, with members like Mozart, Shakespeare, Ben Franklin, and more. But a shadowy group known as the Vespers has been waiting in the wings, waiting for their turn to stomp across the global stage. At the very same instant in different time zones around the world, seven Cahill cousins are kidnapped. Now Amy and Dan Cahill have just days to deliver a bizarre series of high-stakes ransoms, or their family members will die. The Cahill kids have to track down and steal priceless artifacts from every corner of the earth - some of the most famous and valuable objects ever created. And all the while, the question remains: Just what are the Vespers REALLY after?

I can't wait to hear what readers think of the new series. And remember, there are books coming from Jude Watson, Peter Lerangis, Roland Smith, Linda Sue Park, and David Baldacci.
