Jack and his foster siblings, Ava and Matt, are orphans, but not your typical kind of orphans--they're geniuses. Well, Ava and Matt are, which sometimes makes life difficult for 12-year-old Jack. When the kids try to spy on Dr. Hank Witherspoon, one of the world's leading scientists, they end up working for him in his incredible laboratory. Soon, Hank and the kids travel to Antarctica for a prestigious science competition, but they find that not all is as it seems: A fellow scientist has gone missing, and so has any trace of her research. Could someone be trying to use her research in order to win the contest? It's up to Jack, Ava, and Matt to find the missing scientist and discover who's behind it all before it's too late. This book includes information about the science discussed and used to solve the mystery and offers projects kids can do at home or in the classroom.

Review:
'Bitter, freezing weather, a bunch of research scientists who may not all be the affable, karaoke-loving clever-clogs they seem, and a missing friend it doesn't take a genius to work out that this is going to be a thrill-a-minute adventure.' --TheBookBag.co.uk
'This new chapter book series is perfect for budding geniuses (like myself, vanity alert!) With its TWO New York Times bestselling authors, Bill Nye and Gregory Mone, and real-world science facts, watch out, rivals! Bill even has a TV series, what a fun guy (not the fungus, the adjective). There are lot of great books out there, but this one has it all. The combination of scientific adventure, humour, and suspense in easy to read language is just what you need to start a chemical reaction in your middle-grade readers' --RoboEpicGuy blog
"This author partnership does not disappoint. This adventure made me ask questions from the start. Crammed full of gadgets and gizmos the tech alone had my mind buzzing and wondering if these items were in fact possible. I was pleased to see the This is Reality section of the book that showed how some of these inventions are indeed based in reality. [...] A well-spaced typeface on cream paper in bite-sized chapters makes this book very accessible to dyslexic readers which is an extra bonus. Now if I can just get my hands on one of those nose vacuums I could save a fortune in tissues this hay fever season!" --Armadillo Magazine
