If you like stories that are full of suspense and adventure Cryptid Hunters written by Roland Smith should fit your reading needs. This story is about two twins (or are they) whose parents are missing after an accident. The kids are taken out of their boarding school to be with their uncle, a relative they didn't know they had. Uncle Wolfe is a cryptid hunter. He studies creatures whose existence is uncertain; animals from tall tales and legends.
There are, of course, bad guys who are after the same extinct creature as Uncle Wolfe. The chase takes place in a Congolese jungle. Grace and Marty are accidentally dropped into this jungle on their way back to thier boarding school. It isn't only the extict creature that Dr. Blackwood (the bad guy) wants, he is also after one of the twins.
Mr. Smith has created a fast moving story, with many twists and turns. Grace and Marty have a great relationship for siblings. This was one of those books I call a "stirring the sauce" book, (making dinner one handed while holding the book and continuing to read).
