In 1937, bank robber Jeffrey Hillbrook was killed in a shootout
with federal agents in the woods west of Clear Valley. His sizable
stash of loot was never recovered. Old Man Humphrey, a hermit
living in the woods at the time, was thought to have harbored the
gangster during his final days. It is also believed that after
Hillbrook's death, Old Man Humphrey took possession of the loot and
hid it somewhere in the woods. But to this day, no one has found
it. Now twelve year old Steve Jones is in the hospital. He and his
brother Tom took on the school bullies - and lost. While recovering
from a broken arm, Steve learns that his brother found a clue that
could help them solve the seventy year old mystery. The only thing
standing in there way is a series of deadly challenges laid out by
Old Man Humphrey. They enlist the help of two friends, girls they
know from school, and start on their quest. Along the way they will
discover the sinister secret that caused Old Man Humphrey to live
alone.
