The thrilling conclusion to Christopher Healy's funny, action-packed, acclaimed alt-history adventure!
It is 1884, and Molly and Cassandra Pepper, Emmett Lee, and Emmett's long-lost father are sailing back to New York following their death-defying adventure in Antarctica. Having discovered a subterranean world at the South Pole while saving the world from certain doom once again, surely their accomplishments will finally earn them the recognition they deserve.
Unless, of course . . . well, you know by now.
And so do the Peppers and Lees. They're used to having their deeds covered up by the government in order to protect powerful men, and frankly, they're sick of it. And when their return to New York doesn't go the way they'd planned, they decide that maybe it's best to go into hiding and accept that, perhaps, the forces aligned against them are just too great.
As the 1884 presidential election approaches, however, our heroes discover a plot against leading candidate Thomas Edison that only they can stop. It'll be up to them to decide whether to come out of hiding, make the perilous journey to Washington, DC, and do the right thing one last time. Even if it means risking everything they have left.
- Alt-History Adventure: What if Thomas Edison ran for president in 1884? Our heroes uncover a diabolical plot that could change the course of American history.
- Found Family: After adventures around the globe, inventors Molly, Emmett, and Cassandra must rely on each other one last time--even when it means coming out of hiding.
- Action-Packed Spy Story: A thrilling journey from New York to Washington, DC, filled with daring escapes, secret plots, and historical twists that will keep young readers guessing.
- The Thrilling Series Conclusion: The final, funny, and unforgettable installment of the Perilous Journey of Danger and Mayhem series brings the adventure to an explosive close.
