THE LEGENDARY JEWELS OF NABOOTI ARE MISSING! WILL FINDING THEM HELP WORLD PEACE? OR COULD IT KILL YOU? Two huge diamonds and two priceless rubies have been stolen from a museum in Paris. People in your own family have died trying to protect these jewels. Now, you must help your cousins Peter and Lucy do the same, but is it worth risking your life? Strangers offer help, even the police, but can you trust them? Remember, you control what happens next by turning to the page you choose. Molotawa looks at you for a moment, and then says, "I am a prince of the ancient Nabooti tribe. We ruled a large region of Africa for many, many years before Africa was taken by European countries. We were fair and just. The jewels are a powerful symbol of our leadership. They have magic powers. We must have them back to continue our work." "If you wish, you can meet my father, the king, here in Paris, or you can go now to Senegal where my people are." YOU choose what happens next!
