The final chapter in the series that began with The Quest for the Diamond Sword—will Steve and his friends find Mine Mountain and get the legendary treasure? When Steve’s friends Max, Lucy, and Henry get their hands on a map with the location of the legendary Mine Mountain, Steve questions if the map is a fake. Going to this fabled mountain, rumored to contain an endless supply of diamonds, is every treasure hunter’s dream.

On their trip, Steve and his friends stumble upon a town filled with friendly folk. While there, they meet other treasure hunters who are also searching for Mine Mountain. As the group joins forces with their new treasure hunter friends, creepers attack them. The closer they get to the famed mine, the more creepers appear. The group doesn’t know if this is the work of a griefer or if the creepers are trying to hide something. Will they stop the creeper attack? Will they get the diamonds? And should Steve and his friends trust these new treasure hunters? It’s a test of trust in this journey for treasure.

Sneak Peek ROWAN, COMMISSIONER OF POLICE, SCOTLAND YARD: I've found the bank robber, Phileas Fogg. Send without delay warrant of arrest to Bombay. FIX, Detective. The effect of this dispatch was instantaneous. The polished gentleman disappeared to give place to the bank robber. His photograph, which was hung with those of the rest of the members at the Reform Club, was minutely examined, and it betrayed, feature by feature, the description of the robber which had been provided to the police. The mysterious habits of Phileas Fogg were recalled; his solitary ways, his sudden departure; and it seemed clear that, in undertaking a tour round the world on the pretext of a wager, he had had no other end in view than to elude the detectives, and throw them off his track. Synopsis Around the World in Eighty Days tells the story of how Phileas Fogg, an isolated and well calculated man travels the world in eighty days on a £20,000 wager. Accompanied by his well trusted assistant and his new found companions along the way, Verne lays out a series of fascinating obstacles for them to overcome, showing how more thrilling an adventure can be when it becomes more unpredictable than one might think.
