Bookroo's summary

Oliver and Celia Navel, adventure-averse twins, are thrust into a perilous quest in Tibet when their mother vanishes and their father wagers with the cunning Sir Edmund. Facing Yetis, witches, and a giant yak, they must unravel mysteries to outsmart Sir Edmund. Can they uncover a life-changing discovery and finally enjoy their beloved TV?

From the publisher

Eleven-year-old twins Oliver and Celia Navel could care less about adventure and they really do not like excitement. They’d rather be watching television. Unfortunately for them, their thrill-seeking parents have dragged them from continent to continent their entire lives. But when their mother goes missing and their father makes a bet with the devious explorer Sir Edmund, the twins are forced into action. They head to Tibet where they fall out of airplanes, battle Yetis, poison witches, and encounter one very large yak. If they can unravel the mysteries and outwit Sir Edmund, they might just make the discovery of a lifetime . . . and get cable television!
