Description
Pack your climbing gear and hold onto your helmets as Maisie and her dad zip off on their second adventure in this globetrotting series! Join their search for lost treasure in the rugged peaks of the Himalayas…
When Maisie travels with her Dad to the Himalayas to research his book, How to Find Buried Treasure, she doesn’t expect their exploration to take them deep into the caves beneath the mountains. Before long, Maisie has discovered a cursed treasure, stolen a shark, been hunted as a thief, walked through an underground lake and outrun an explosion. Just another average day!
Turns out there’s more to Maisie than she even realised herself, but will Dad tell her truth? Or is this secret just too dangerous?
Filled with humour, heart and a touch of the supernatural, this series is perfect for the most intrepid of 9+ readers!
