Opis

The Waypoint Book Series takes the reader on an adventure following Ben Connor who finds himself on a dangerous, high-tech scavenger hunt taking place in different states around the United States. This geocaching scavenger hunt is like Pokemon Go-but instead of capturing virtual Pokemon-Ben is after a treasure -a huge, unbelievable, epic treasure, which could forever change the lives of everyone he knows- and the lives of an entire culture that he doesn't know. Over and over in the series Ben is forced to come to terms with his own insecurities; physically, emotionally, and spiritually. He has to prove that he is capable of completing and thriving in all the dangerous challenges that are laid out in front of him, and this isn't something he can just give up on, he can't just turn off his phone and have it disappear-not if he ever wants to see his family again. In the second book of the Waypoint Book Series, join Ben, Megan, and Aunt Lacey as they explore Alaska. Once again finding themselves on an eerie treasure hunt-created by a dead man-the group finds themselves thrust into a world of bears, avalanches, sunken ships, and an unbelievable treasure. But with a huge treasure comes a huge threat, and Ben quickly realizes he must do everything in his power to protect his little sister and aunt. But how can he protect them against a group of dangerous treasure hunters, who believe he holds the key to a shipwreck's two-million dollar lost treasure? The villains will stop at nothing, and when they realize that the actual treasure is the deed to the land where the world's richest gold mine is hidden, they will do anything to get their hands on it, including killing some innocent kids and their annoying aunt. Ben has to fight like he never has before, using skills and mind games that in the past he never thought he would have control over. He has to beckon the mysterious, ghostly, shape shifting creature known as The Keeper. He learns how to embrace, rather than fear, The Keeper's presence in order to combat the bizarre challenges laid out before him and the evil thugs who threaten to destroy his world. In Waypoint: Alaska the chase is on, and this time, someone isn't coming home.
