This is the information provided about the story line of "The 39 Clues" book series:
Minutes before she died Grace Cahill changed her will, leaving her decendants an impossible decision: "You have a choice - one million dollars or a clue."
Grace is the last matriarch of the Cahills, the world's most powerful family. Everyone from Napoleon to Houdini is related to the Cahills, yet the source of the family power is lost. 39 clues hidden around the world will reveal the family's secret, but no one has assembled them. Now young Amy and Dan must decide what's important: hunting clues or uncovering what happened to their parents.
The books will set the scene, telling the basic story while the cards, website and game allow kids to participate. Kids visit the website and discover they are lost members of the Cahill family. They set up online accounts where they compete against other kids and Cahill characters to find all the clues. Through the site, kids can track points and clues, manage card collections, dig through the Cahill archives and "travel" to collect artifacts, interview characters and search for clues. Collecting cards helps: Each card is a piece of evidence containing information on a Cahill, a clue or a family secret. Prizes will be given away through the books, website and cards, including a grand prize of $10,000.
