The children end up in very dangerous places from which they know that they have to escape, but there is just one problem they do not know that their parents are trying their hardest to find the children, they think that they are out partying and on a trip. Every night they wish that they are home and in their rooms rather than moving from one place to another.

Rating: Summary: "The Ear The Eye And The Arm" Review By Rahul Rutanen-Whaley Review: If you like adventure, science fiction, and mystery, you'll love this book! It's got it all: daring rescues, glimpses of the past and cool technological structers. In the beginning three kids are bored with life and all the robots and machines that surround them, so they plan a trip to get out of the house that they are confined in with the help of the family Mellower. The trip serves two purposes: first, to see what the outside world is like and second to be able to claim an Eagle Scout explorer's badge. They plan to be back before their parents get home, but that idea is abandoned when they are kidnapped by some slum dwellers and made to work in a plastic mine. Meanwhile their father a rich army general, and their mother a very beautiful and brave woman try to get all the help they can. They end up hiring the weirdest detectives in the country of Zimbabwe. The kids go from Dead Man's Vlei to an enclosed area of the past and at last to the evil base of the worst gang in Zimbabwe. The detectives are right behind then but always arriving a little too late to rescue them. Will the kids survive? Will the gangsters get caught? If you want to konw the ending just buy this book and read it. I normally do not like science fiction, but this was an exception. It's one of the best books I have read. Just to let you know, I have read a good load of books and I'd put this one in the top ten!
