Shirley J. Adult Fiction ancient artifacts, wealthy benefactors, Africa
The Oracle (A Sam and Remi Fargo Adventure) by Clive Cussler and Robin Burcell
399 pages
Another series book, but, can stand alone in its own right. The Fargos are wealthy philanthropists who enjoy archeological digs and finding ancient treasures to share with the world as well as investing in a school for young girls in Nigeria. This adventure takes place in Africa where they encounter rebel land pirates who steal their goods for the school through the aid of several children as decoys. A good story with lots of action, murder mystery and mayhem complete with a surprise helper within the pirate's organization. Surprisingly lots of murders and unchecked gunplay. Well told story with excellent characters involved. I would recommend this book to highschoolers on up.
