The Lewis and Clark Squad didn’t prepare for what their teammate Cody encountered in the canyon that day: an injured man, his truck and money stolen. They started putting pieces together when they spent the night at Chad’s house. Through his telescope they witnessed suspicious people down by the river.
They’re not just a summer basketball squad. They’re a lean, clean, adventure-finding team!

A good day for Cody Clark was one that went according to plan. His plan. This was not a good day.
He coasted down the gravel and dirt lane called Cemetery Creek Road. It was wide enough in most places to allow two rigs to pass, provided one was not a logging truck. The knobby tires on his steel-gray and green mountain bike bounced and scooted as they banged and skidded from rock to dusty rock. His shaggy dark brown hair flagged in the breeze, which felt faintly cool on his bare arms and lower legs.
“Denver and Dad are at the ranch. Townie went with his grandpa to bring his mother home. Mom’s working at the post office. Feather’s still sleeping. And me?”
“I want you to ride down and check on Mr. Levine,” Mom had said. “He didn’t come into town this week like he said he would. He has a registered letter to sign for. Tell him he needs to pick it up by Friday.”
Ride my bicycle out to Mr. Levine’s? Oh, sure, Mom. It’s only eight miles downhill to get there. And a zillion miles uphill to go home. Good, old Cody. He’ll do it. Cody, the slave.
