Long Held Lake Secrets

    Letters Digger’s friend Thelma recently received from a brother’s estate raise questions about what happened to some of Thelma’s parents’ prized possessions. Were they submerged with the family’s old farmhouse, which became part of Deep Creek Lake when it was filled in the mid-1920s?

     Digger and the very pale Uncle Benjamin see no way to learn more, but night visits to the lake by an unscrupulous duo may mean someone else is looking for valuables to plunder. But how would they know they exist, and what would convince them to dive for it?

      Is a fortune in coins hidden at the bottom of Deep Creek Lake? Is Peter really Thelma’s great-nephew? Can Digger and Uncle Benjamin solve the mystery before Thelma succumbs to Peter’s charm and gets hurt?  And what will happen to Digger or her friend Marty if they get in the way of the treasure seeker?
