Description

Dick Morrison works at the town’s bank, but his real talent lies in helping anyone in trouble. When a reckless motor‑cyclist named Ferd Graylock crashes his bike in a roadside ditch, Dick steps in without hesitation, cleaning the mess and offering a hand despite their earlier clash. Their uneasy truce reveals a boy who values honesty and a sense of duty over petty grudges.

The incident quickly spirals into a larger puzzle when Ferd mentions a lost fortune that vanished from his family’s old safe. Dick’s curiosity and knack for getting to the bottom of things pull him into a chase through the countryside, where secret maps, hidden clues, and unexpected allies await. Listeners will follow the pair as they balance friendship, danger, and the promise of uncovering a long‑forgotten treasure.

About the author

Frank V. Webster

Frank V. Webster

A house name rather than a single person, this byline belonged to the Stratemeyer Syndicate, the powerhouse behind many early 20th-century adventure books for young readers. The Frank V. Webster novels are brisk, wholesome stories packed with school rivalries, outdoor exploits, and underdog grit.
