About This Book

A group of schoolboy cousins and their friends leave their academy for an outdoor hunting trip and become involved in a local mystery after rescuing an injured lumberman. Their efforts to help him establish legal claim to a remote island lead to clashes with an obstructive rival, a sleighing episode, a skating contest, a dangerous fire, a blinding snowstorm, and an encounter with wolves. Careful searching uncovers a hidden tin box and long-kept secrets, and the boys use teamwork and resourcefulness to resolve ownership and bring matters to a peaceful conclusion.
