Operation Trinity (2012) - Plot & Excerpts

I can tell you right now it's not bad, but its not the best book, either.This book has 3 stories in it, all about a family of powerful and rich people called 'Cahills.' It skips years, so the first story is from 1549 or something like that. The kid in this story is sent away by his family to be an altar boy, to protect an altarpiece from an organisation of people called 'The Vespers.' They are trying to get ahold of the special altarpiece because they say it has clues o a secret, we don't know what it is yet. Anyway, you'll have to read it to find out what happens (although it's pretty obvious what happens). The first story was exciting, same with the second, but at the end something happens that i personally think is pretty stupid. And the 3rd story seems ridiculous and hard to understand. It's practically just one of those boring-normal-scenes-where-there-is-a-stupid-chase. I find them really boring cos it happens in like EVERY mystery book.Overall, as I said, its not a bad book, but its one of those usual-happening-scenes and it just gets really boring. There is something like 9 or 10 books in the series, and to me, the series is one of those kinda-exciting-and-boring-series'. Honestly, DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!!!!!! At this point the Cahill sage, I think I enjoy the inter-book novellas more than the actual series. The smaller adventures have a stronger cohesion that doesn't seem like we're going through the same actions again and again, even though that is, in essence, what we're doing.This story follows three events surrounding the Ghent altarpiece by Van Eyck. It was an effective way to connect that particular artwork to the sage of the Cahills and the Vespers. The first event involved the iconoclastic revolts. It gave them an interesting motive, but I think I would have liked to have seen just a bit more of the history brought in, like has been done in other 39 Clues books. The second event involved Grace, and it was nice to fill her backstory in a bit more. The third fleshes out Ian Cabra's backstory, which I assume will become more important to understanding him as the series moves forward.

What do You think about Operation Trinity (2012)?

I adore the Ghent altarpiece and anything about Grace:)
