Horn Book (Mon Apr 01 00:00:00 CDT 2013)

Siblings Amy and Dan reach a breaking point when they discover the Vespers' fatal plan (Trust). In Doom, the two face the near-impossible task of destroying a Doomsday device and shutting down the Vespers indefinitely. The final two entries in this suspenseful series are more focused and deliberately paced than previous books, which helps bring the story to a satisfying conclusion.

Now was not the time for Amy Cahill's courage to fail. She had to keep her wits about her. Amy knew she would have to be wary of poisons, a stable of the Lucian branch. Isabel might have a hidden needle in a ring, or perhaps embedded in her shoe. Whatever the case, Amy would be ready. This was one on one. And she was going to take Isabel down, finally. She balled up her courage and prepared to face one of her worse nightmaes, Isabel Kabra.

International bestseller David Baldacci pens the stunning conclusion to Cahills vs. Vespers!

It started with a kidnapping. A shadowy organization known only as the Vespers snatched seven members of the Cahill family and demanded a series of bizarre ransoms from around the world. Thirteen-year-old Dan Cahill and his older sister, Amy, began a global treasure hunt, determined to bring back whatever Vesper One needed, so long as it kept the hostages safe.But when they deliver the last ransom, Amy and Dan discover Vesper One's terrifying endgame. The objects he demanded are vital pieces in a Vesper plot that will harm millions of innocent people. Now the two siblings and their friends are in an all-out sprint to stop Vesper One . . . before the whole world goes BOOM.
