His adventures discovering ancient artifacts have been made into movies, and his work is widely respected by museums across the world. The thing is, in that line of work, you're bound to get cursed. And that leaves your great great (great?) granddaughter to break the curse by returning the artifacts you \"preserved.\"\u003cbr\u003eCincinnati's own adventure begins in the Cosmopolitan Museum in New York City, where her single mom works and Cincinnati has grown up. Soon she learns about the ancient Spear of Destiny--and its potential to right all the wrongs in her family's past. Or bring about the end of the world. It all depends on whose hands it falls into. Cincinnati must beat two relic hunters to the spear, and her quest will take her to surprising locations throughout the city and even across the Atlantic Ocean. Along the way, she'll make a new friend (which is not the easiest thing to do), make some enemies (surprisingly easy to do), and ultimately learn what makes the world worth saving. Acclaimed author Heidi Heilig makes a dazzling middle grade debut with an irrepressible hero, a compelling cast of friends and enemies, nonstop action, and a thoughtful approach to viewing our responsibilities to each other and the world around us.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"display:none\"\u003eISBN-10: 0063348365\u003cbr\u003eISBN-13: 9780063348363\u003cbr\u003eAuthor: Heilig, Heidi\u003cbr\u003ePublisher: Greenwillow Books\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Greenwillow Books","offers":[{"title":"HardCover (Mar 2025)","offer_id":45937256399045,"sku":"9780063348363","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0708\/6414\/2533\/files\/9780063348363.jpg?v=1772856649","url":"https:\/\/www.inveni.store\/products\/cincinnati-lee-curse-breaker","provider":"Inveni","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
