Description

Jake's plan for a carefree holiday at a musical performing arts camp in the Windy City hits a sour note when he stumbles upon a long-hidden message from his mother, art historian Karen McGreevy. She had traveled to Chicago thirteen years earlier on a dream assignment, never to return home. With his violin and his mother's mysterious letter in hand, Jake, his best friend Julie, and new pals Ben and Natalie are heading west, where they will follow the clues and uncover the truth about a missing masterpiece, the meaning of friendship, and the enduring bond between a mother and her son.It's one of the great mysteries of the art world: Whatever happened to Modern Woman, the massive three-panel mural created by Impressionist Mary Cassatt? Millions admired Cassatt's mural at the 1893 World's Fair, but then somehow, nineteen years after the fair closed, her painting disappeared. Chicago Bound, written by Sean Vogel, is book two in the Jake McGreevy middle-grade series. It follows the story of four talented and tenacious kids trying to determine why Jake's mother died in Chicago thirteen years earlier. Was it really an accident? Ms. McGreevy had been an expert hired by the Chicago Art Institute to verify whether a recently discovered mural was, in fact, the Cassatt mural that was displayed at the 1893 World's Fair.Using Jake's mother's journal, hidden messages, the library, and plenty of gadgets, the four resourceful friends must outfox several nefarious characters who do know, in fact, the truth about the mural and Ms. McGreevy's demise.
