Her parents' constant fighting has driven thirteen-year-old Ellie to hide out in between the pages of her favorite books and, on one occasion, even in a hall closet. While there, she finds her late grandfather's journal and discovers he was searching for a treasure linked to the Nazis. Ellie hopes finishing what he started will solve all of her problems. Accompanied by her little brother, Ellie starts unraveling a trail of cryptic clues that lead her deeper into a mystery more than sixty years old.
