(4) 4-6 Illustrated by Adam Stower. The Smithfork children stumble onto a decades-old treasure hunt within the walls of the ritzy Manhattan apartment to which they've recently moved. Coded poetry and peeks behind hidden walls begin their search for the missing inheritance of the apartment's original owner, whose elderly daughter joins them in an attempt to solve her family's secrets. The ambitious but somewhat muddled mystery features relatable characters.
