Description

The Auto Boys have set up camp on the remote shore of Opal Lake, a quiet wilderness that promises plenty of hunting, fishing and summer adventure. Their routine is disrupted when strange smoke, mysterious voices and odd footsteps lead the teens to an abandoned clubhouse, where they sense someone else is lurking in the shadows. A chance meeting with the enigmatic Chip Slider, who knows the local lore about a long‑lost loot and a dangerous figure named Murky, pulls the boys deeper into a web of rumors and hidden motives.

As the boys share stories around the fire, they piece together fragments of a three‑year‑old robbery and the unsettled work of the Longknives Club, while strange sightings of a foreman, a Swedish family, and the unsettling presence of Murky keep the tension high. With their camp supplies mysteriously stripped and the forest whispering secrets, the Auto Boys must decide who to trust as they begin to unravel the puzzle that surrounds the deserted house and the missing fortune.
