The Mercer Boys on a Treasure Hunt

Don and Jim Mercer have just returned from a week at Woodcrest Military Institute, hoping for a lazy summer in their hometown of Bridgewater, Maine. Their routine day on the local baseball field takes an unexpected turn when Don’s powerful swing shatters the window of Professor Scott’s house. The boys, accustomed to good-natured mischief, scramble to assess the damage and wonder whether the reclusive professor is home.

Their curiosity quickly deepens when they discover a hidden note tucked among the broken glass, hinting at a long‑forgotten secret tied to the town’s history. Already seasoned by previous escapades— from thwarting river bandits to solving a puzzling academy mystery— the Mercer brothers, along with their loyal friend Terry, feel the pull of another adventure. Listeners are invited to join them as they follow the first clues of a treasure hunt that promises danger, camaraderie, and the thrill of uncovering what lies beneath Bridgewater’s quiet surface.
