Thomas Small and his best friend Pesty Darrow have been keeping the secret of the vast treasure that's hidden in Mr. Pluto's cave, once a stop on the Underground Railroad. Pesty also has to keep the treasure a secret from her family, who want it for themselves. And there are plenty more secrets in the underground passageways-hidden rooms, Indian legends, and terrifying ghosts. Now Thomas thinks that Pesty might be keeping some secrets from him, too. If they can't trust each other, how will they ever protect the treasure? This ebook features an illustrated biography of Virginia Hamilton including rare photos from the author's estate.

From the inside flap of the dust cover "Time was when the ground dried up, and rainstorms were only a memory, The wind kept blowing away clouds, the sun seared the land, and folks wondered why their fields and streams had been dry so long. Then a terrible wall of dust swept across the landscape, turning day into night. In front of the wall ran a desperate boy: Drylongso. And with him came hope for a better time."
