What is The Wright Three about?

Petra, Calder and Tommy join forces to save Frank Lloyd Wright’s Robie House from demolition. As they investigate the building’s strange history, unsettling voices, unexplained accidents and shadowy figures suggest that something more than architecture is at stake. Clues lead the three friends towards hidden treasure and a coded message left by Wright himself. But with danger closing in, they must unravel the mystery before the house—and perhaps their own safety—is lost.
