About this listen
She already lost her mom, now her father is missing . . .
Maddie Jones’ dad has been kidnapped. The only way to save him is to uncover the mysteries behind the ancient terracotta warriors of China. But the mysteries reveal a 2,000-year-old curse and a plan to unleash the soul of a malicious emperor. What’s a teenage girl to do? How about enlist the help of her seriously annoying brothers and stow away in a crate of mummies . . . then begin a very dangerous quest.
An ancient evil is awakening. Terracotta warriors are coming to life. And worst of all for Maddie, she’ll have to recruit one if her plan is going to succeed. Maddie and her brothers will do anything to find and save their dad . . . even if they have to fight a mummy who has been plotting revenge for thousands of years.
Some tombs shouldn’t be opened.
Maddie Jones is an edgy Nancy Drew meets the Goonies with a voice like Percy Jackson.
