The Case That Time Forgot

(4) 4-6 Sherlock Files series. In their third outing, Xena and Xander, the great-great-great-grandchildren of Sherlock Holmes, tackle another one of their ancestor's unsolved cases. This time they're in hot pursuit of a missing Egyptian amulet. A Da Vinci Code-esque search leads them to London landmarks including Cleopatra's Needle and Big Ben. The mystery itself isn't particularly suspenseful, but the scavenger hunt around London is mildly diverting.
