Now, as the twins continue their family road trip from Washington D.C. through the South, it will take every bit of their genius abilities to outwit their wacky enemies. It doesn't help that their parents remain totally oblivious! When they finally get to Graceland, Elvis's home in Memphis, Tennessee, Coke and Pepsi come to an explosive conclusion you'll have to read to believe!

But what choice do you have when an evil Elvis impersonator is chasing you across America? This cross-country road trip is about to take an explosive turn!

Want to join in the fun? Fire up the old Google Maps and follow the McDonald twins as they get chased from the World's Largest Frying Pan all the way to Graceland, Elvis Presley's home in Memphis, Tennessee. Lucky for the twins: You Only die twice! . . .
