Review: ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
A family mystery unravelled with a touch of magic. Ford is on his summer holidays with his family. He feels everyone has their own special gift except himself. Gavin is super smart and Ellie is pretty brainy too. They have great hobbies and even speak better French. He wants to find his thing, little does he know, Ford is pretty unique. As the annual MacKenzie- Whitaker family trip begins the group are going to discover a family secret which will make the holiday even more thrilling.
Their Great-grandfather was a spy during the Second World War. Ford finds some old pictures and gets a glimpse into the past. Ford's special gift is to see more than the photograph. Now the family are getting more than they bargained for and an adventure around Paris.
The idea of Family of Spies is really creative and the story is a great adventure. 4 stars out of 5.
