The Secret of the Silver Mines: A Dylan Maples Adventure

Just when Dylan Maples is settling down after last summer's trip to Ireland's Eye, the parental units are at it again—planning another family adventure. Only this time, it's not a summer vacation, but an extended trip way up north to Cobalt, Ontario, in the middle of a bitter winter. Once a thriving silver mining community, all that's left of the town's rich history are the long abandoned mines.

A Toronto millionaire has hired Dylan's dad to retrieve a fortune in silver allegedly stolen from his grandfather back in the early part of the twentieth century. But was the fortune really stolen? And if so, where has it been hidden? The answers to these questions reside with one man—Theobald T. Larocque, Cobalt's oldest citizen. But no one has seen him in years. And no one seems at all eager to help Dylan's dad locate him—except, of course, his devoted son Dylan, and Dylan's newfound friend and accomplice, Wynona Dixon.

The Mystery of Irelands Eye

Book Review!
Let me start off with saying how incredible this whole series has been so far! I’m on book 4 of 5 and I’m loving it. These books are so intriguing and have just the right amount of plot twists to keep me entertained throughout the whole thing. Even though this is a middle grade series it is so amazing and a great series! Thank you so much for this #freebook from @digitally_lit as a #youthambassador

The first book start off with Dylan going to Newfoundland’s Ireland Eye in search of the ghost on the island. They have to venture out through the rough waters for several days to arrive at the island. They almost end up going over board and Dylan see a whale a little too close for comfort. When they get to the island they find out their « ghost town » might be taking the term a little too literally. Weird unexplainable things keep happening and it’s enough to almost drive Dylan and is parents off the island.

I think book was very well written with lots of details that kept me engaged and a great plot. I loved the mystery aspect of this novel and how you really don’t expect what happens next. This was a great read that I highly recommend to everyone as it’s a quick fun read that I’m sure everyone will enjoy! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I recommend this book.
