Jack and Jaide Shield are
psychic twins. Their main guardian is Grandma X, a Warden of Portland who is
secretly protecting the world from The Evil, a terrible force from another
dimension. Someday Jack and Jaiden will become Wardens too. They are too young
now and their powers are too unpredictable. Unfortunately for the twins their
next adventure will happen without the help of Grandma X. She had been in a car
accident and ended up in the hospital and put on heavy medicines.
The twins father shows up and
wants them to find the Card of Translocation, of course they aren’t the only
ones looking for this object and its source of power. Their task is to search
the Rourke Castle. The owner, Master Rourke, died under mysterious
circumstances, so there would be no help from him. The twins do get to
investigate the castle with old friends Rodeo Dave and Tara. They discover the
castle is like a museum with hidden rooms and lots of secret places to hide and
there are peep holes in paintings. Solving this mystery is bringing more questions
than answers. How will the twins find the Card? There seems to be a growing
lack of trust amongst some of their friends. Will they find the Card before The
Evil?
Authors Garth Nix and Sean
Williams have done a great job of putting together the third book in this
series. Readers will find plenty of twists and turns while venturing through
this fast paced read. Parent and teachers will approve.
