They go on along way long car ride to meet their unknown uncle(Count Olaf). They find out that Count Olaf is trying to steal their fortune.
Review: Ms. Fuller read part of the series in 4th grade. I was mostly suprised when Count Olaf was the uncle of the Baudilare children. My favorite part of the book is when Count Olaf askes Violet on a hand of marriage. I reccomend people who love adventure and shockings throughout the story.
