About This Book

Three inventive youths—Jack, Bob Temple, and Frank Merrick—are drawn into a northern rescue after their father reveals the disappearance of Thorwald Thorwaldsson’s secret expedition, sent to rediscover a mysterious oil-bearing river reported by a lone survivor. The narrative traces their investigation from Seattle through rumor and inquiry, then into the Arctic pursuit as they apply wireless communication skills and practical resourcefulness. Encounters with severe weather, isolation, and logistical hurdles test their teamwork and ingenuity while the plot moves from detectivelike clue-gathering to an expeditionary push aimed at locating and aiding the missing explorers.
