The second story in the popular Book Scavenger series finds preteens Emily and James trying to break a famous historical code. As they race around San Francisco finding encrypted messages, a mysterious arsonist is somehow connected--and may be their teacher. Narrator Jessica Almasy's portrayals bring the characters to life through well-crafted vocal variations. Emily's and James's cleverness and realistic personalities will have listeners rooting for them on their quest and enjoying the story's literary and historical references. During the bookstore fire, Almasy thrusts listeners into Emily's panic as she looks for an escape. The audiobook is filled with codes to solve, so listeners may want to have paper and pencil on hand.
