Dr Ralph Penner became an expert locksmith, a pilot and a professor after his wife and he separated. These pursuits were activities that he used to fill the voids in his life, but they became extremely useful as he was faced with a summer of adventure. After years of being single Ralph is faced with a summer of falling in love with one lady after another and none seem to fit his dream girl status. He does get involved with a human trafficking organization which consumes his entire summer as he tries to protect many young lives caught up in the illegal business of crimes against unwitting young people from other lands. The ladies that he meets along this summer experience don't seem to fit his requirements of mate selection. Before the end of the book, two of the ladies become very important to him, one very young and one somewhere around his age. Ralph goes back to his teaching job with full intentions of keeping in touch with two of his new friends. He finds out that making a tough decision at his age isn't always that easy.

Sid had a choice. He could marry a fourteen year old Mayan or let her die as a sacrifice to the fertility god of Mayan women. The fourteen year old girl was nice, she was sweet and she was very pretty, but oh so young. Her name was Si. He knew he was in the wrong place at the wrong time. He was in a real tough spot trapped between two dimensions about five-hundred years apart. Socially he would have to comply with the cultural requirement of marriage, but then later as the tribal women began watching her belly, he found out that if she didn't show a child within two years she would still be sacrificed and he would have to marry another. Morally and ethically, he did not intend to make anyone that young his wife. Sounds complicated? It's not; he works it out with the best results for everyone, even himself. How do they have a baby when they really need one without Sid breaking his own cultural code of ethics?

This story is about one of the Wisnook Tribal legends, albeit a lesser legend, but nonetheless, one of great significance. We know the greatest legend among the Wisnook is the White Panther or the spirit leader of the tribe. At the time of this story the steamboat had recently been invented. These powerful machines were beginning to travel the larger waterways. A young man without prior knowledge of such a contraption became familiar with a few of the men who were searching for new ways of travel to improve commerce and human transportation. This story involves the uncanny innocence of a young Indian lad who with good luck and the right companions would be able to do more for the world than he would have otherwise had he not been summoned away from the comfort and friendly life among his family and peers. Did I say peers, he had no peers. He was that much different. His situation was much different than any normal boy born into the Wisnook Tribe, he had a distinct birth characteristic that made him one of the most reserved and most challenged lads of his time. He found it very difficult to be normal even though he didn't mind his difference.

A young Indian orphan desires to do more, learn more and become more than anyone in his tribe. His primary goal is to get an education not available to him as an orphan living among his peers. He accomplishes a few remarkable things before he runs away from the land of his ancestors. He ends up on the east coast of the United States and begins working but has no desire to keep his earnings. Through some chance meetings and lucky breaks he begins a college career that leads him to a PhD and eventually, he becomes a professor admired by all. His lifetime ambition is sidetracked when a beautiful, former student tells him that she is and has been in love with him. I am sure everyone reading this book will be surprised at the way it ends.

Throughout the ages, dogs have been part of human life, beginning so far back that there are no certain records. There have been many wonderful, special dogs and we do have records of some of these.

This book reveals her adventures to the United States and across the continent.

We are placed on the merry-go-round as babies and most of us leave as old men and women, but the things we do while going from one place to the next has all to do with what and who we are more than anything else other than our genetics. You have heard that old saying, "What goes around, comes around." I really think that is one way to look at our situation and our relationship with others. This story is in that vein. Our spy, Robert Copeland will be called upon to save his friend Little Eagle who at one time stepped forward to save him in a previous book, Little Eagle Saves A Spy. My comments here are not intended to describe that book, but it is mentioned briefly in order to get the gist of the reason this book came about. This story is reversed in who saves whom, and the situation is reversed in an unsure way in order for the reader who has read the first book and knows there is a big difference in the strength and fortitude of Little Eagle and the seemingly lack of those characteristics in our main character Robert Copeland, but, having said that, Robert always somehow gets the job done and usually get rewarded for it.

Wisnook Treasure begins with a cross country hop in three different planes of the same kind. A flying club has arranged for our two main characters to fly from Texas to the East Coast of the United States undetected. The flight requires an excellent plane with short take off and landing capabilities along with safety and fuel economy. The Zenith STOL CH 750 Light Sport Utility proved to be the perfect choice for the task. The home of the manufacture of this company is in Mexico, Missouri. The author, Dr Robert E McGinnis is a pilot and he has long admired this great plane and the company that makes it. His choice for using this small, neat and proven aircraft was not difficult. Once the mystery begins, our two companions from the previous book, The Golden Cross get involved with government agents and unscrupulous treasure hunters as well. A chase begins in Texas and with help and good luck; our two companions make it across the continent and solve the riddle of the Wisnook Treasure.

There are five books in this Paradise Series and in this book our hero travels to Canada in a long and difficult search for his parents from whom he was separated at birth.
