About the Book

Did someone say treasure?

Life is great. Riley and Noah's dad returns from Army deployment, and the reunited family is headed to his hometown in Nebraska for a Veterans Day parade. But the trip takes an unexpected turn when the kids meet an elderly woman named Miss Maisie who reveals that there's a hidden treasure in the town. And when Grandma Suzie's dog (and fellow detective), Ozzie, uncovers what the kids are convinced is a clue, they're plunged into a real-life mystery and treasure hunt. The kids discover an abandoned railway depot that has connections to World War II, but soon they find themselves trapped and in danger. Will they find the hidden treasure or a dead end of disappointment? The friends uncover the true treasures of kindness and generosity and learn the real-life lesson that we are God's handiwork, created in Christ Jesus for good works.
