Race to Witch Mountain · the Junior Novel

Las Vegas cabdriver Jack Bruno wants only one thing--to get through the next three days with no trouble. But when he gives two teenagers, Seth and Sara a ride, the trouble he gets into is out of this world... literally! It turns out that the teens are aliens who have crash-landed their spaceship in the middle of the Nevada desert. Now, in order to save their world and ours, they must recover the ship and return home. But that's not going to be easy. A group of secret agents have taken the ship, and an alien assassin with some serious firepower is hot on their trail. With only a reluctant Jack to help them, Seth and Sara set out on a race to Witch Mountain.
