their house may be haunted, with a treasure hidden somewhere inside!
Right away they all set out to solve these mysteries.
Each
one of the Hollister children - Pete (age 12), Pam (10), Ricky (7),
Holly (6) and Sue (4) - plays an important role in finding clues, along
with their parents, who are always ready to join in on the excitement.
Even Zip, the collie, and White Nose, the cat, are part of the family
and find thrilling adventures of their own.
As the
Hollisters explore their new town and make friends, they discover what
happened to the moving van and learn more about the mystery surrounding
their new home. Excitement abounds when a secret stairway is discovered.
Then, on the trail of a mysterious intruder, their chase leads them to a
deserted hut on nearby Blackberry Island.
