It was the last day of seventh grade and 13-year-old Isabelle Night was SO looking forward to a lazy summer!
You know what can ruin a lazy summer?
Demons. That's what can ruin a lazy summer.
In this smart-kid adventure, Isabelle finds herself traveling to the Middle East with her mother, archaeologist Annaliese Night, to help their good friend Gunther Braun solve a mystery. Two mysteries actually. First, a strange man appearing out of the desert to offer Gunther help with his dig, telling of ancient secrets hidden in the palace and guarded by demons.
And then, the very next day, two guards go missing at a mysterious pit only recently opened.
Things only get worse when they arrived to find Daniel Carmichael at the digsite. It meant constant drama the whole time he was there - he and Isabelle's mother never stopped fighting. What had happened more than a decade ago to make them hate each other?
Not exactly the kind of summer Isabelle had been expecting. But Gunther's gorgeous grandson Will Braun was also at the dig site. Eh, maybe spending a bit of time in the desert wouldn't be so bad after all.
Within hours of their arrival, a murder occurs, Isabelle is kidnapped, and the entire dig site is taken over by a group of grave robbers. Can Isabelle escape her kidnappers and find her way back to her mother? Can they find the treasure-if there is a treasure-before the grave robbers do? And speaking of grave robbers, Isabelle's father is on a first-name basis with the thieves. What's up with that?
Isabelle Night and the Demon's Flute is a fast-paced adventure with intrigue and lots of creep factor. The story is an engaging read, inspired by real archaeological finds. This is the first book of the Isabelle Night Series, and sure to be a book you can't put down!
"Well drawn characters on a rousing adventure reminiscent of Indiana Jones' exploits."
