KC and her friend Marshall investigate a man who claims that he's the rightful heir to the fortune that endowed the Smithsonian Institution. The premise is silly, but early readers will have a good time piecing together the clues in this fast-paced story. Serviceable black-and-white images appear throughout.(Copyright 2004 by The Horn Book, Incorporated, Boston. All rights reserved.)
