Steven Gallaher: The Whitlock Trail, Gebunden

Klappentext

When a mysterious stranger places an old journal in David's hands, he has no idea the simple exchange will pull his family into a mystery buried for more than a century.

Inside are strange symbols, cryptic clues, incomplete directions, and references to something hidden long ago. At first, the journal feels like an intriguing puzzle. But as David, Michelle, and their children, Emma and Jacob, begin following the clues, curiosity turns into something much larger. Old land records connect to abandoned rail lines. Forgotten maps point toward places nearly erased by time. Hidden structures and overlooked landmarks begin to reveal a trail someone clearly never meant to be easy to follow.

And they are not the only ones searching.

As unfamiliar faces begin appearing and strangers seem increasingly interested in their movements, the family realizes the past is not as distant as they believed. Someone else knows about the journal, and whoever is following them may be willing to do far more than simply solve the mystery.

Each discovery pulls the family deeper into isolated country and deeper into a story that official records never fully told. Clues that appear to offer answers often lead to new questions. Places that seem insignificant prove important. What looks like an ending may only be another step along the trail.

Soon, the search becomes a race.

David and his family must rely on one another as they try to understand what was hidden, why it was concealed, and why people are still willing to pursue it generations later. The farther they go, the more dangerous the journey becomes-and the more they begin to question whether the Whitlock Trail was designed simply to hide something, or to make sure only the right people could ever find it.

The Whitlock Trail is a suspenseful adventure filled with forgotten history, hidden clues, family tension, and a mystery that refuses to stay buried.

Some treasures are worth finding. Others were buried for a reason.
