Description
In the second novel of Michael Dahl's Finnegan Zwake Mystery series, Finn sets out on an archaeological dig with his uncle to find treasure his missing parents left behind but finds some shocking discoveries when the dig goes too deep.
Thirteen-year-old Finnegan Zwake, his Uncle Stoppard-a bestselling mystery writer-and their friend Jared set off on an archaeological dig in sunny Agualar: land of giant cacti, jungles, and dinosaurs. Dead dinosaurs, that is.
While Finn and his uncle are digging up treasure left behind by Finn's archaeologist parents, now mysteriously missing, the rest of the crew is digging up very valuable dinosaur eggs. But digging too deeply can stir up trouble, not to mention a murder... or two, or three...
