Jonah and Katherine journey to 1918 with the Romanov children in the sixth book of the New York Times bestselling The Missing series, which >calls “plenty of fun and great for history teachers as well.”It’s a paradox: When Jonah and Katherine find themselves on a mission to return Alexei and Anastasia Romanov to history and then save them from the Russian Revolution, they are at a loss. Because in their own time, the bones of Alexei and Anastasia have been positively identified through DNA testing. What hope do they have of saving Alexis and Anastasia’s lives when the twenty-first century has proof of their deaths?

In risked, the sixth installment of the Found series, Jonah, Katherine, Chip, Daniella, and Gavin are forced into the past with a faulty elucidator, no contact with JB and Gary and Hodge from book one on their trail. When they finally catch their breath after running from the bullets, they compare their knowledge of the Romanov dynasty-and realize they know two different versions and have no idea which version to try to stick to.Holy Cow. I waited toooo long for this, but it was worth it (and the break was broken up by a short story that actually explains a lot) Haddix, instead of sticking to her formula from past books-Jonah, Katherine, missing child of the book try to fix history, apparently, she just decided to not only throw in teo missing children for the entirety of the book, but she brought back Chip, who has been sick/arrow happy since Sent. Every single character brought a lot to the novel, although I would have liked to see a bit more of Dani. Chip stole quite a few scenes too, he wasn't baggage. He had some of his king-skills working for him as he negotiated with people and was capable of violence that Jonah has been unwilling to commit. Katherine is really growing up to...gone is the little girl we met in book one. Katherine is an excellent example of a strong female lead, wont take crap from the boys, strong and willing to make decisions on her own, and she and Jonah have a pretty healthy relationship.The plot was good and had Haddix-like twists, although the ending was a bit predictable, she added a few things that made my eyes pop out of my head: we see a bit of the future this time round!!! Plus, the stakes seem to be getting higher...three of the leads were seriously injured.
