Mountain Rails of Old, third book in the Family History Mystery Series
Digger Browning never paid much attention to the abandoned cottage and its long-gone occupants until she accompanied her friend Marty, who wanted to photograph it for a news story. Everything changed when Uncle Benjamin made a huge discovery nearby. What really happened to Samantha and her eight-year-old daughter twelve years ago? If it hadn't been for a growling raccoon, Digger might not have badgered enough people to find out.
Her friend Holly doesn't like the ancestors Digger found for her, and Marty thinks she's distanced herself rather than level with him about how she feels. Digger doesn't realize that her search for a station on the Underground Railroad will cross paths with efforts to bring Samantha home. And that path doesn't lead to a safe haven.
Join Digger, Marty, and Uncle Benjamin as they sometimes operate at cross-purposes to solve old mysteries and unlock the mountain's secrets. Western Maryland at its elusive best.
