There's nothing twelve-year-old Samantha Sutton wants more than to become an adventure seeking archaeologist like her brilliant Uncle Jay. Samantha's big dreams are finally coming true when Jay invites her along on a summer excavation exploring an ancient temple in the Peruvian Andes.

But this adventure isn't exactly what she thought it would be with her nosy older brother Evan and Jay's bossy colleagues monitoring her every move. On top of that, she has to deal with the local legend El Loco: a ghostly madman who supposedly haunts the ruins. But when the project's most important finds start to go missing, it's up to Samantha to solve the mystery before Jay loses his job and the treasures of the temple are lost forever.
