The Search for Macadamia - A...

RG Halleck

HOW COULD AN ENTIRE CITY SIMPLY DISAPPEAR? 
That’s what Spencer Delucian wants to know. 
On his twelfth birthday, his dad sends him off with his chatty terrier on a global expedition to rediscover the lost city of Macadamia—a place no one has heard of. 
Spencer knew there’d be dangers, but he never imagined he’d earn a new bloodthirsty enemy at every stop. 
Nonetheless, it is a noble quest. Really. 
Well, mostly. There is some theft, but only from bad guys. And some accidental swindling. And one or two broken bones. 
But with courage, cunning, and help from his friends . . . it still might not be enough. Because what if Macadamia isn't even real?
