Here you can read the first chapter.
CHAPTER 1
"I see it," said five year-old Timmy.
He pointed to an old wooden sign.
"I see it, too," said Penny.
Charlotte, pug and Master Detective saw it. It said: The Whispering Gold Mine.
She was in Colorado with her friends. They had come to see the old mine.
"Do you think we will hear it whisper?" asked Timmy.
Charlotte wanted to see the old gold mine. She wanted to hear it whisper.
"Do you think we will dig for gold?" asked Timmy.
"I don't know," said Penny,
"That's what they do in a mine," said Timmy. "They dig for gold."
"Not all mines," said Penny. "They dig for other stuff, too."
She had the know-it-all look. Head up. Nose in the air.
"Yeah, I know," said Timmy.
He was used to his sister. She was seven. Most times she was smarter.
They got closer to the sign.
Charlotte saw cars parked near it. And a lot of people.
Then a man said, "Welcome to the Whispering Gold Mine."
But Charlotte didn't see any gold mine. Just trees. And grass. And weeds. And the high rocky mountain.
The man was tall. He had on jeans and a shirt. He had on heavy boots. On his head was a strange hat.
He waved his arm. "Follow me."
And they walked right into the mountain.
