Fueled by mystery, grit, glory, and sandwiches, three modern-day teens uncover America’s history and forgotten treasures one adventure at a time. The hunters are Ben Prescott, 18—The researcher, the mystic, the trailblazer. Porter Rockwell, 17—The man of action, the social glue. And Latch McRae, 17—The mechanic, the gear man, the straight-shooter.

Find DeSoto's Lost Silver

Ben Prescott, Porter Rockwell, and Latch McRae couldn’t be more different. Ben is a home-schooled thinker and visionary, Porter is the starting quarterback for the Ridgeport Raiders, and Latch is the gear-man, who never saw a machine he couldn’t take apart and set to purring. Different, yes, but the three have been friends forever with a shared passion: treasure hunting for the forgotten loot of American history.

When the hunters’ senior trip to a famous Ozark Mountains theme park is commandeered by a mysterious “collector of antiquities” with a compelling map, the hunters find themselves deep in the underbelly of a legendary cave where a rumored stash of Spanish silver is said to lie—a treasure long hidden by the schemes of conmen, robbers, and bootleggers who sought to claim it as their own. But the Collector and his map may not be what they seem.

Suddenly, survival is at stake as Ben, Porter, and Latch venture even deeper underground. Now they must plumb the cavern’s secret passages, dodge bottomless pits, and probe lost chambers with only the secretive scrawls of a dubious map to guide them—all with a gang of cutthroats on their tail who seek to steal the cavern’s treasure and trap the hunters beneath the mountains—forever!

Book 5 in an all-new series where the high school age male heroes are smart, tough, and resourceful—and hunting treasure from American history’s secret past is the greatest game of all.
