Likewise, Avery spends the first third as a pretty face to whom various handsome young men explain the situation, but once the action picks up, she more than holds her own.

Once the treasure hunt begins in earnest, the pace quickens to a heart-pounding degree, and readers will happily get swept up in the chase. The underlying conspiracy is awkward, but this title isn’t about logic but action, adventure, and romance, and it’s ultimately a heck of a lot of fun.

As they globe-hop from Paris to Istanbul and back again, solving ancient riddles with assassins on their trail, the three begin to realize that the power they are seeking might unite the twelve families as one or destroy them completely. Her only way out: team up with Jack and the enigmatic Stellan to find Alexander’s treasure and free them all. Suddenly thrown into a whirl of opulence and power, Avery quickly realizes that her new couture gowns hide a life of servitude and violence, where her blossoming romance with Jack might get them both killed. There she learns that her presumed-dead father heads one of twelve families who secretly control the world and that she may hold the key to a prophecy dating back to Alexander the Great. Out of the seeming blue, sixteen-year-old Avery West is compelled forcefully to Paris on a private plane by a handsome British guy (current classmate Jack) and a handsome Russian guy (Stellan).
