The Clue Hunt


So far this is the longest of the Rapid Fire Short Stories. It is told in a unique way. The Vespers watcher is tracking some of the Cahills as they hunt for the 39 clues. She is making reports on which of the Cahills might be possible turncoats. She is testing them to determine which have the most potential to become Vespers. Her pieces are between incidents, focusing around different members of the Cahill family. These incidents are told from the first person perspective of the individuals. The Cahill's are:

Ted Starling
Jonah Wizard
Hamilton Holt
Ian Kabra.

It gives us a much greater insight into Jonah, Hamilton and Ian. It is another great short story and advances our knowledge of the 39 Clues world.

I love the original 39 Clues books, and have on my short list to read the second series, The Cahills vs. Vespers. But this short series released between December 25th and December 31st 2011, really caught my attention. 7 Days 7 Short Stories each give us part of a clue and more background information on some of the characters from the books. They are more than worth the price of $0.99 each. Plus each book gives us part of a clue to unlock a new section on the 39 Clues website.
