The Mystery of the Lost Will
(available from Crimson Dragon Publishing)
Where there’s a WILL, there’s a way!
Did old man Granger rewrite his will and change his mind about who would inherit his millions? And what was he trying to tell the nurse just as he died?
Kalani Henderson is sure there must be another will hidden somewhere. Together with his brother Tristen and Navajo friend Danner, he sets off to find it. But first he must find out if Wyatt Granger even had time to write a new will before his sudden death. The mystery seems impossible, even to an experienced crime solver like his dad who encourages his sons in this seemingly impossible quest.
