The Viper's Nest, by Peter Lerangis

The Viper's Nest, by Peter Lerangis, is the seventh book in the 39 Clues series. Amy and Dan, shaken up by their last encounter with Irina, travel to South Africa with their au pair, Nellie Gomez, after discovering a note in Irina's boat. They seem to not trust Nellie Gomez, but she gets their trust back later on. Their search leads them to a Tomas stronghold in the South African veldt. They find out that their branch is the Madrigals, which is a combination of all the branches.

This book is very interesting and full of adventure. It is good that the characters maintain the lead and keep ahead of everyone. I recommend this book for anyone else who likes the series.
