The most exciting road trip in history continues! In this third book in the thrilling, New York Times bestselling adventure series, twelve-year-old twins Coke and Pepsi McDonald dodge nefarious villains all the way to Graceland.

The genius twins Coke and Pepsi have narrowly escaped a vat of a Spam, a pit of boiling fry oil, and a score of crazed adults all bent on killing them. But just when they thought they were safe, their arch nemesis Dr. Herman Warsaw reappeared, engaged to their Aunt Judy! Whoa—didn't he die already?! Now, as the twins continue their family road trip from Washington D.C. through the South, it will take every bit of their genius abilities to outwit their wacky enemies.
