Sinopse (Skoob):
When
their beloved Grandma Grace dies, Dan, 11, and Amy, 14 — along with other
Cahill descendants — are faced with an unusual choice: inherit one million
dollars or participate in a perilous treasure hunt. Cahills have determined the
course of history for centuries, and this quest's outcome will bring the
victors untoward power and affect all of humankind. Against the wishes of nasty
Aunt Beatrice, their reluctant guardian since their parents' deaths, Dan and
Amy accept the challenge, convincing their college-age au pair to serve as
designated adult. Pitted against other Cahill teams, who will stop at nothing
to win, the siblings decipher the first of 39 clues and are soon hot on the
historical trail of family member Ben Franklin to unearth the next secret.
