Book Overview
A crashed plane. A lost gold mine. A summer the cousins will never forget.
When Robert and his cousins arrive at their grandparents' mountain ranch to help save the family land, they expect hard work, horseback riding, and homemade ice cream. They do not expect to pull a man from a burning wreck before the first hour is up. But that is exactly the kind of summer this is going to be. With the ranch facing financial ruin, a hundred-year-old family legend suddenly becomes urgent business. Somewhere on that mountain, a lost gold mine is waiting to be found, and the only clue is a baffling note left behind by a pioneer great-great grandfather no one has ever met. But when shadowy figures start lurking around the property and a ghost train appears on tracks that have not been used in over a century, the cousins realize something far more dangerous is going on. As the mystery deepens, neighbors start disappearing. The cousins must use their tech-savvy instincts to try to outwit real criminals, crack a century-old riddle, and save the ranch before it is too late. Because some treasures are worth more than gold, and some summers change everything. Can five cousins out-think, out-run, and out-last the bad guys before their grandparents and their ranch are gone for good? Fans of The Wild Robot Protects, Hardy Boys, Boxcar Children, and Nancy Drew will devour this fast-paced, middle grade adventure, packed with laugh-out-loud moments, genuine heart, and the kind of old-fashioned grit that makes heroes out of ordinary kids. The award-winning adventure starts here Order today with one click, in print, audiobook, or for kindle.
