Canadian sabotage

Jeff Szpirglas

Countdown to danger: choose your ending!

"30 dangerous paths. 30 minutes to escape. YOU choose the path to survive! Readers choose their own path as they dodge obstacles like deadly quicksand, giant sea monsters, double-crossing villains, hungry great white sharks ... and maybe even a Canadian Bermuda triangle! You're on a family vacation to the east coast of Canada. While spending the day in Lunenburg, Nova Scotia, your parents sign you up for a super boring sightseeing trip on a lobster-fishing vessel. But strangely, you're the only family aboard the boat. And you soon notice the fishermen are going off course. But where to? And why? And what is that weird high-pitched noise? As it turns out, your father -- an archaeologist for a prestigious Canadian museum -- has not taken you to the Maritimes just for a pleasure trip. He's been holding on to a map he found that pinpoints the location of a stash of gold, and now he's hoping to cash in. But others have clearly learned of the map's existence. They've taken your parents hostage and will stop at nothing to get the gold, which is apparently hidden just offshore. You've got 30 minutes to stop the criminal masterminds, save your family and find the gold ... or die trying!"--, Provided by publisher
