When a trio of kids find themselves whisked off to Paris while the Silver Jaguar Society investigates a worldwide art heist, what are they to do to occupy themselves but organize an investigation of their own? Soon, they are off to catacombs and museums, racing against time until another precious artwork disappears. If they only knew who they could trust and who was working against the efforts of the Society. Fast pacing and revelation of just the right number of clues at just the right time make this an accessible, intriguing read even for kids who aren't fans of classical art. Recommended.

The premise--the kids are junior members of a secret society that protects the world's treasures--is a bit hokey, but exactly the kind of plot that kids find intriguing. As a grown-up, the lack of parental oversight is frustrating, but it's what enables the events to occur, and a kids' adventure book wouldn't be nearly as exciting with grown-ups following the kids everywhere.
Messner has managed to cram quite a bit of historical information into the book, and her incorporation of real-life places (like Notre Dame and Shakespeare & Co.) will connect kids to the story even more. Those who have been to Paris will thrill in recognizing the places described; those who haven't will be inspired to travel there.
