A mouse and cat game...
Amy Cahill, 14, and her younger brother Dan are drawn by an unusual telegraph into a remote area of Russia, far from the only reliable adult they have ever known. The telegraph, with the letters NRR, starts a race to find out what happened to the last Russian royal family and what riches the Nazis took. The treasure search quickly begins to smell like a Lucian trap. However, the lure may be too much to ignore. What will Amy and Dan sacrifice to get the truth about what really transpired the night their parents passed away?
