Quote #4

"[Grace] was a cartographer. A map maker and an explorer. She made that globe herself." (4.70)

As far-reaching as the Cahill clan is, we're under the impression that Grace might have changed the world in her own ways as she explored it. Have Amy and Dan changed anything during their exploration of the globe?

Quote #5

As [Dan] pressed the last letter, the whole shelf swung outward. (4.101)

You can't have a good treasure hunt without a secret passage. Preferably one inside a bookcase. At least this one wasn't opened by pulling a lever disguised as a book—like every other secret passage bookcase ever.

Quote #6

"This is just the kind of mystery Mom would've loved!" (6.17)

The hunt isn't just about a trip around the world for Amy and Dan, it also lets them explore their family history and find connections to their parents that they didn't know they had. Could that maybe be what Grace had in mind when she designed the hunt?
