Stalked in the Catacombs

Front Cover               Stalked in the Catacombs is the 3rd book in a series called A Daring Adventure and was written by Peter Reese Doyle. It was published in 1993. It has no illustrations, but the writing makes me feel as though I am right next to the main characters, Mark and Penny Daring and their friend, David Curtis.
               Stalked in the Catacombs is about three teens, Mark and Penny Daring and their friend, David Curtis. They are in France, helping Mr. Daring get sensitive information on a just-discovered tomb in Egypt. While they are helping, though, their archenemy, Hoffman, tries to steal the information so he and his crew can rob the tomb. In the end his plans are foiled.
                One of my favorite parts in Stalked in the Catacombs is when Mark, Penny, and David are taking a tour in the catacombs under Paris. Hoffman plotted to grab Penny and keep her until Mr. Daring told him where the tomb was located in Egypt. While thethree teens were exploring the catacombs, Hoffman grabs Penny and the three got separated-Penny and David, and Mark by himself! Will Penny and David get out? Will they stop Hoffman's men? Will Mark get help?  These will only be answered in the book, Stalked in the Catacombs.

    1. You're welcome. As you read in the review, it is the third book in that series. Look for the series, A Daring Adventure.
