Product description

A book. A riddle. A town full of secrets for two kids to solve… When Candice finds a letter in her granny’s attic in Lambert, South Carolina, she opens up a long-lost puzzle. The letter talks about a young woman. An injustice that happened decades ago. A mystery enfolding its writer – and a fortune to be won by the person who solves the mystery. So Candice and Brandon, the quiet boy across the street, decide to unravel the clues. The challenge leads them deep into Lambert’s history – full of ugly deeds, forgotten heroes and family secrets. Can they solve the puzzle before the answers slip into the past?
