Get ready for another hilarious, hair-raising adventure with the First Family of Action. Bick Kidd and his globe-trotting siblings Beck, Storm, and Tommy have successfully completed their first major treasure hunt. But their mission is far from over. Their father is still lost at sea, and their mother is being held captive by a crew of nasty pirates. Their desperate search for a rescue plan takes the siblings all the way to Africa, where they must travel down the legendary Nile River. Along the way, they will have to navigate a maze of ancient Egyptian pyramids hidden in the desert and survive the dangers of wet and wild jungles. From life-threatening wilderness diseases to angry hippos and some seriously bad guys, the Kidds face impossible odds. They must use all their wits and teamwork to find the hidden treasure, rescue their parents, and save the day.

Bick, Beck, Storm, and Tommy Kidd are true professionals when it comes to uncovering the world's greatest lost treasures. They do the hard work without ever seeking out fame or glory. So, they are less than thrilled when their ultimate rivals, the Collier Kids, start treasure hunting for the cameras. The Colliers care more about looking good for their streaming show than actually recovering historical artifacts. When the Kidds are invited to compete directly against the Colliers for the title of The World's Greatest Treasure Hunting Kids, they jump at the chance to show everyone how real exploring is done. But the competition quickly takes a serious turn. With dark rumors swirling about a massive mistake made by their great-grandfather years ago, the Kidds realize that more than just a shiny title is on the line. They must solve a deep family mystery and pull off their biggest treasure haul yet.
