Paris, 1933
Rocket, Nuri, and Screech return in the second volume of the Rocket
Robinson series. This time, they find themselves in the French capital,
where a rare and mysterious painting from the middle ages has been
stolen from the Louvre Museum--and Nuri's uncle is the prime suspect!
The young adventurers are soon hot on the trail of the stolen artwork--a
trail which leads to a pair hapless French thieves, a secret cabal of
merciless German spies, a shadowy secret temple, and an ancient medieval
castle! But this is no ordinary painting... the secret contained within
may lead all the way to the most mysterious and sought-after treasure in
history.
