Description

The greatest secrets are hidden in plain sight...

Fresh off their success at the Fall Festival, the Oakhaven Junior Detectives—Sam, Mia, and Jake—are ready for a new challenge. They never expect it to arrive by a tap on their treehouse, tied to the leg of a beautifully carved wooden owl.

The message is a riddle, pointing them to the town library after dark. There, under the moon's glow, they find their first clue: a blank piece of parchment that only reveals its secrets under the heat of a flashlight. It's the first step into a labyrinth of codes and clues designed by a brilliant mind from Oakhaven's past.

Their investigation leads them to a rare first edition book, where they must find specific words on specific pages to unlock a keyword cipher. But solving the code only leads to another, more baffling message: "It's not here. Sorry."

Is it a dead end? Or the ultimate test? To succeed, they must learn that the real treasure isn't a hidden object, but a hidden story—the true, forgotten history of how their beloved library came to be. And waiting in the shadows is the only person who can tell them if they've truly earned the right to protect it.
