The first installment—Wade and the Scorpion's Claw—picks up right where book one left off, with the Kaplan family seeking the next Copernicus relic. Now Wade, the analytical yet starry-eyed member of the group, leads the chase through the busy streets of San Francisco while on the run from one of Galina Krause's most treacherous henchmen. Solving the riddles that will reveal the relic's location involves making alliances with suspicious strangers and guarding an ancient Chinese artifact that people would risk their lives to protect—or steal.
