The Falcon's widow, Beatrice von Falkenberg, claims that she deserves the diamonds (she is really poor and has had to sell all her property except her mansion) and threatens Nick with an alligator to make him promise to give her the Maltesers. Nick pushes a Beethoven piano out the upper-story window with Lauren's help onto the assassins' van, injuring them.When the brothers inquire into how Johnny Naples fits into all of this, Snape tells them that he was a quack doctor living in La Paz, with a run-down practice in the city's backstreets. It took me about 5 hours to read because I just did not want to put it down, and this book is made for kids but I think this is a gripping comedy/mystery for all ages. The message the author is trying to get to us is that not to give yourself away easily and not to trust everyone. With great humour, interesting chapters, and a great storyline, it is one of the best books I have ever read.
