Operation Trinity
Author: Clifford Riley
Series: 39 Clues Cahill Files
Book I
Have you ever read the 39 Clues series? What about its prequel? The book
Operation Trinity has been quite an interesting read. I’ll just give you a short
synopsis of the book: The Cahills have remained in power for about 500 years.
How were they this powerful? The answer is in the 39 Clues Hunt. One clue to
the 39 Clues - Jan van Eyck’s altarpiece at Ghent is in grave danger because
someone “accidentally” spilled its secret out. Clearly, this book is more than
what meets the eye.
First the story focuses on the attack that the Vespers, who we might call
the “bad” guys, play on the altarpiece. It then speeds over to Ms. Grace Cahill (our
heroine!) who rescues the masterpiece from the Nazis. Ian and Natalie Kabra are
featured in the last but not least part of the book where they have their first
mission! However, as they are trying to steal the altarpiece as well, Grace Cahill
appears on the scene to make an amazing save of the altarpiece on her last ever
mission.
My favorite part of the book was when Ian and Natalie’s mission is crushed
by Grace, because the whole factor of whether or not the altarpiece will be saved
depends on that. I would recommend this book to anyone looking for a little bit
of adventure!
