A treasure hunt, a family get-together, a beloved cottage threatened by by an evil mining consortium — The Case of the Missing Deed has them all! The five cousins, aged between nine and thirteen, are determined to save Grandma’s cottage from being bought by Tantalus Mining or, if the deed Grandpa hid somewhere before he died really can’t be found, its reverting to the crown and the mining company getting it though the province. Finding the deed is essential, but Grandma can’t remember where Grandpa told her it was hidden, and they all knew that he disliked banks and safety-deposit boxes.
