I would rate this 5 billion if I could.This book is for anyone who loves mystery,adventure and clifhangers.I spelt that wrong 100%.It left me crying in some places but I'm generally a very emotional person so...The first time I listened to this i found it very long but if you listen to it again it seems shorter.That was very long so I don't know why I added this part😂.
P.S. It may be a bit scary for younger children as it does have some death in it and some tiny gory details.
