The Treasure of Netherstrand

A legendary poem whispers words of mystery about a long-hidden treasure in Netherstrand Hall: an extravagant resort in Victorian North Devon. That's why Charles Hannover bought the castle in the first place. Money is foremost on his mind as he watches the sightseers pour in to visit his estate. Too caught up in business to think of searching for the treasure, he has every reason to hope for riches as the owner of such an attraction. But when Hannover hires a scamp as his errand boy, everything in his life begins to change. Breaking into Hannover's gloomy life, Timothy becomes a mystery almost as deep to Hannover as the legend of the treasure itself. What keeps joy shining in the child's eyes? What makes life so delightful to him? As time goes on, Hannover has to wonder if this penniless waif has what his heart has always secretly craved: the riches of a soul which is full of the peace and joy of God. And, when Timothy begins finding old riddles throughout the castle, could it be that this plucky boy is the only one capable of solving Netherstrand's mystery? Teaming up, the miserly businessman and his sunny-natured errand boy delve into the depths of the castle's secrets. But there are footsteps in the shadows; and unnerving scenarios make Hannover fear that they aren't the only ones getting close to finding the treasure. As he races to solve the mystery before any other hand can touch his treasure, Hannover finds himself gaining a far greater prize than money. And as Timothy's nature and zeal for Christ draws his heart, he finds himself longing for much more than silver or gold. The question is, will he find what he's really searching for?
