There’s so much to see! Palm trees, hidden treasure, UFO’s, vanishing stagecoaches, incredible hot sauce, missing stealth plane pilots. Wait! What?

3  Welcome to the Wild West! A horseback journey like no other!

The Wright cousins find a cryptic letter from the 1800s, hidden in a secret compartment of an old leather cavalry pouch. “This is the path to the treasure city,” it begins. “I’m in!” says Tim Wright, “Let’s go!”

4  The Wright cousins are helping to restore an American Revolutionary War fortress.

Watch out for surprises! When the cousins’ new friend goes missing, they must find her before it’s too late!

Robert and Tim Wright, our two happy-go-lucky teenage cousins, accidentally become America’s top two secret agents.

6  The five Wright cousins have a submarine and they know how to use it!

But the deeper they dive in the waters of Lake Pinecone, the more mysterious the lake becomes. Something spooky is wrecking boats on the lake and it’s downright scary. Are they really up against a sea monster?

The Cousins are up in the air in their newly acquired vintage airplane!

When their friends are trapped by a forest fire, the cousins must spring into action!

Secret bases, missing airplanes, and an unsolved World War 2 mystery are keeping the Wright Cousins very busy!

9  The Wright cousins are out of this world and so is the fun!

Join the cousins as they travel into space aboard the new Stellar Spaceplane. Enjoy zero gravity and incredible views. But what about those space aliens Tim keeps seeing?

10  “Now,” Tim said, “who wants to be the guinea pig, I mean, go first into this nice, creepy, scary, awful secret passageway?”

These are dangerous times in the kingdom of Gütenberg: the cousins’ friends, King Straunsee and his daughters, have been made prisoners in their own castle. The Wright Cousins scramble to help.

11  Robert raced up the castle stairs, his head pounding. The rescue mission had totally backfired.

Not only was the king gone, but Jonathan, Sarina, and Kimberly were gone, too! Who can the Wright cousins trust and how can they solve this mystery before it’s too late?

12  A cold war is about to turn hot in the Kingdom of Gütenberg and time is running out for the Wright cousins.

Snowstorms, jagged mountains, enemy soldiers. How can the Wright cousins discover and retrieve a top secret clue before it’s too late?

Uh-oh, I think we’re in serious trouble!

14  There’s so much to see and do on the lush tropical Pacific Island of Talofa: boogie boarding, scuba diving, exploring, boating, surfing, and a treasure hunt!

But danger also lurks in the deep blue ocean waters. Cousins beware!

15  This fun and exciting sequel to book #14 finds the Wright cousins searching Talofa and its neighboring tropical islands for a legendary lost treasure.
