The Hitchcock family don't
get along, and the kids Maddy and Benji are happy to stay that way in their
separate lives. But when summer rolls around, head-of-household Roger Hitchcock
announces their plans for a summer trip to Paris. Although frustrating and full
of surprises, the trip turns out to be just what the Hitchcock's needed.
After
the first chapter you know the plot: unhappy family goes on a trip, trials bond
them, they go home as a happy family. Knowing the entire plot right off the bat
was a disappointment, but the aforementioned trials did spice it up. If you
enjoy action, this is a book for you, just don't expect any variation from this
over-used plot.
