The life of Australian teen Gerald Wilkins changed forever when he inherited twenty billion pounds and a mystery to solve. In The Mask of Destiny, Gerald believes his enemy Sir Mason Green will be put in prison for murder. Instead, Gerald is accused of murder himself. He’ll have to find the last of three emerald caskets to clear his name. The search takes him, Ruby, Sam, and Mr. Fry to Paris, Rome, Athens, and Delphi. They discover Delphi once held the greatest treasure on earth. It could still be there, waiting to be found by someone good. Or evil…
 
Anthony Horowitz fans will love the extreme adventure, exotic locals, and illustrations in The Mask of Destiny, the rollicking conclusion to the Archer Legacy trilogy.

Editorial Reviews

From the Back Cover

The final chapter of the Archer Legacy opens in the Central Criminal Court of the Old Bailey in London. Gerald, Sam, and Ruby are attending the murder trial of Sir Mason Green, hoping to see their longtime enemy put away for good. But just as the trial is about to begin, Mason Green is killed—and Gerald is framed for the murder. He only has one choice: to run.

Now he and his friends, along with Mr. Fry, are off on a quest to clear Gerald's name. Their journey will lead them across Europe in a race for the greatest and most powerful treasure ever assembled on earth—one that waits for someone, good or evil, to finally claim it.

Mysteries will be solved, friendships will be tested, and all secrets finally revealed in this, the last installment of Richard Newsome's pulse-pounding epic.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Richard Newsome (1964 - still kicking) was born in Wanganui, New Zealand and lived the first few years of his life on a small farm among the sheep and pigs. His family moved to Australia when he was two-and-a-half and generously took him along as well.

He enjoyed school but despite decent grades chose to become a journalist. He spent many years chasing police cars, ambulances and politicians. He eventually went to university and graduated with a first class honours degree in economics, which still doesn't get him decent tables at restaurants. He worked in business for a bunch of years but decided that ditching his career and becoming an author was more dignified than buying a red convertible.

His debut novel The Billionaire's Curse, which won the Text Prize for Young Adult and Children's Literature in Australia, is the first in a trilogy and is being published in seven countries.

Richard stands six foot two in his socks and one day hopes to afford some shoes.

    5.0 out of 5 stars It's a GREAT series...will there be another?

    Have you noticed that many series currently on the market are not always engaging for all family members? I have both a daughter and a son, with whom I read 'family books' after dinner, on lazy Sunday afternoons, and by the fireplace. I am always on the lookout for books that will 'speak' to both of them, highlighting the values of family, friendship, loyalty, etc.....

    Richard Newsome has written a great series beginning with "The Billionaire's Curse", and currently ending with the "Mask of Destiny". I stumbled across this series when buying books for a neighborhood child, and couldn't give it away after reading the first chapter in the store (had to buy it!). This series has three friends using their respective talents to solve a long-standing puzzle, written in a manner that is exciting to young tweens (and this adult), with the adventure taking the children to different continents. I highly recommend this book and series to all.

    This series kept my grandson reading well into the night! He had to be told to turn off the light and go to bed. My grandson says it is well written and a page turner. He also likes all the locations it takes place in the world. A great series for summer reading!

    I loved this book. It was full of twist and turns, and a very surprising surprise at the end. I never could read mysteries, but this was more of an adventure than a mystery. I loved how all the books took you to a different place. I absolutely loved it.

    I know this is a "kids" book but I have read all of this series and have throughly enjoyed each of them. Sometime you just want a fun, fast read without all the sex, and drama. This was it. Would recommend to pre-teens, teens and adults.
