When they finally arrive in Austria, Tom, Sarah, and Hunter are trapped for six months! The government is tipped off by the evil Committee, and the country closes all borders, as the military and police relentlessly search every city, town, and village to capture them.
Meanwhile, Oliver, Kate, and Henry have relocated to Poland where they are desperately trying to help the others escape. Kate and Sarah soon learn that the three stolen Britfield artifacts were once held by the Habsburgs and Romanovs. When placed together, they could unlock a worldwide treasure map of unimaginable riches.
While Tom and Hunter’s parents, Charlotte and Donovan Britfield, remain just out of their reach, the clock is ticking on the Committee’s impending strike on the Resistance, and the three teen spies might have to sacrifice more than they imagined in order to bring the darkness to light.
Starting in Vienna, the adventure traverses Prague Castle, the Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg, Krakow, Warsaw, the Baltic Sea, other parts of Eastern Europe, and Russia.
