The book starts while a family is staying at their grandmother's house in Bermuda after finding the mysterious, lost island of Tamarind hidden inside the Bermuda triangle three years earlier.Maya,16, Simon,13, and Penny, 6, now find themselves in a strange and dangerous situation. The company they were working for, The Red Coral Project, an undercover company, decides to post guards around their house to keep them from leaving their grandmothers home. The children are restless because they must stay near the house, away from school, and they know nothing about what is happening. Their adopted brother, Helix,16, has mysteriously left, and only their parents know the reason. The children's dad has been receiving mysterious radio calls. So the children try to return to Tamarind to find out what is happening to their brother Helix.

Opinion: 

This book is one of those books that you take off the shelf and you like it....but it's not anything special. This book is alright, nothing more but nothing less. You are sort of want to read it, but you sort of just want to be done with it. The characters are only alright, and the plot is really stretched out into more pages then it can hold. I don't recommend this book.
