It has been a few days since February ended, but Callum finds himself trapped on a subway track. In the previous two books, teenager Callum Ormond has been told that he must live for 12 months without dying by a mysterious man. Subsequently, Callum discovers files from his father who died of a mysterious disease. The files lead up to something unknown called the Ormond Riddle, which he believes to be a legacy left by his very old relatives. After searching for the legacy, Callum figures out that he is not alone in his search for the legacy and that mastermind criminals Vulkan Sligo and Oriana de la Force are trying to solve the Ormond Riddle. After Callum is accused of killing his sister and uncle, he runs off and is wanted by the FBI. In the previous book Conspiracy 365: February, Callum is closer to finding the legacy and after following clues finds himself at a subway station. In Conspiracy 365: March, Callum escapes the subway and goes down a secret tunnel thanks to his new friend Repro who found him on the subway rail in danger. Join Callum and Repro on their adventures, trying to beat criminals in finding his family secret. Callum endures many challenges such as being bitten by death adders and merely escapes abductions as well as close encounters to death.
The book was very exciting and did not disappoint me. I thought that the Conspiracy 365: January and Conspiracy 365: February books were very exciting, but this tops them both. Callum is always doing something exciting, and is always being trailed by criminals which leads to excitement throughout the whole book. This book is great for people who love action-packed books. I would also recomend this book for anyone who likes puzzles or riddles. Callum finds clues to the Ormond Riddle and is trying to solve them himself, but you can also have fun doing this. The book has pictures of drawings that are clues to the Ormond Riddle. For me, it was very fun to look at these clues and try to figure out for myself what they meant, and the importance they had. I would rate this book 4.5 out of 5 stars since I really enjoyed it.
