Cragbridge Hall, book One: the Inventor's Secret
““‘In books we often begin a journey to find freedom.’ There is no way Grandpa is asking us to search for clues in every book in the world.”
“No,” Derick said. “It must have something to do with the book I got when I was twelve. He’s given me quite a few—Lord of the Flies, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, biographies of Thomas Edison and Benjamin Franklin.”

Over the years, both of the twins had gained quite a collection. “Wait,” Abby said. “When we turned twelve—that was when he gave us books about the people we’re named after.”
“You’re right,” Derick agreed. “You got a biography of Abigail Adams, and I got Frederick Douglass.” He smiled. “When I was really young, I couldn’t figure out how Derick came from Frederick.”
“Maybe you aren’t such a genius,” Abby suggested.
