Chapter 9 CAPTAIN CARTER’S DECEPTION
Four eager members of the Rover Crew, fresh from a night‑time meeting at the Savoy Hotel, find their plans for a simple canoe trip to Minnesota abruptly replaced by a far‑wilder proposition. Their seasoned scout leader, a former FBI agent, reveals an opportunity to join a fully funded expedition to Peru, promising an adventure that could eclipse anything they’ve imagined. The boys, each with distinct personalities—from the confident Jack to the fiery newcomer War—buzz with questions and anticipation as the details of the mysterious mission begin to unfold.
The expedition’s purpose is as tantalizing as it is demanding: to follow clues to an ancient Inca temple rumored to guard a hidden treasure lost when the Spaniards invaded centuries ago. Backed by a pragmatic businessman and guided by a seasoned captain, the Scouts must prepare for rugged terrain, high‑altitude challenges, and the unknown perils of an untouched jungle. Their resolve is tested early, setting the stage for a quest that blends youthful courage with the allure of uncovering history’s secrets.
