Grace Cahill
"I know exactly who I am. I'm Grace Cahill."
Grace Cahill was a former leader of the Madrigal Branch. She was also a cartographer and traveled across most of the world during her search for the 39 Clues.What are the 39 Clues?]]
History
Edit
Grace lost her father, mother, husband, daughter, son-in-law, and much much connection to her brother, and had to lie to and abandon her grandchildren, all due to the 39 Clues. Her life was tragic, but that by no means made her colder, except towards those responsible. She was an extremely nice person, however the Holt family described her as a witch. Perhaps this was because Eisenhower did not help Hope and Arthur Cahill when they were dying. She was the Madrigal branch leader, but told nobody except her siblings Fiske and Beatrice, her lawyer William McIntyre, and her daughter, Hope Cahill.
