Determined to uncover the truth, the boys debate their next steps, swapping theories about the chief’s motives and planning a daring search that will test their resourcefulness and teamwork.

Listeners can expect a lively mix of youthful camaraderie, early‑twentieth‑century charm, and a mystery that keeps the excitement rolling forward.
