In the fourth book of the Genius Files series, the McDonald family continues their cross-country road trip. Oblivious to danger, Mom insists on stopping at every weird tourist attraction and museum, while Dad just wants to drive his "midlife crisis" Ferrari. From the exploding RV at Tennessee's Graceland to the cliff-hanger ending in Roswell, New Mexico, twins Coke and Pepsi are intent on outwitting their murderous enemies and staying alive. As narrator, Gutman takes readers into his confidence and delivers suspense, hair-raising danger, and laughs, along with odd factoids about Arkansas, Oklahoma, Texas, and New Mexico. Series fans will be lining up for book five.

The most exciting road trip in history continues! In this fourth book in the thrilling, New York Times bestselling adventure series, twelve-year-old twins Coke and Pepsi McDonald discover that everything really is bigger in Texas—including the danger!

After their explosive escape at Graceland, twins Coke and Pepsi are ready to resume their trip across America—only now in a convertible instead of the RV. They travel through Arkansas and Oklahoma, visiting weird-but-true tourist stops along the way, and finally end up in Texas, home of the Weird Capital of the Country, Austin. The twins' many enemies—the bowler dudes, Mrs. Higgins, and Dr. Warsaw—all swear that they're done chasing Coke and Pepsi for good. But when the twins start receiving more codes and ciphers from a mysterious robotic voice, they know someone's after them. They just have to figure out who before the mystery villain finds them first.

With Dan Gutman’s laugh-out-loud humor and featuring photos and weird-but-true American tourist destinations like the Museum of Weird, The Genius Files is a one-of-a-kind mix of geography and fun.
