Sibling detectives Rick and Willow join a dinosaur dig in Alberta , where a Tyrannosaurus rex skeleton is being excavated. However, the dig seems to be cursed with strange accidents and disappearing equipment. As they dig deeper, Willow and Rick unearth more than just dinosaur bones as they discover some of the workers have something to hide.

- I continue to be impressed by the Spalding’s blending of print and electronic media, and ongoing feature of the Adventure•Net series. The use of storytelling and non-fiction sidebars with websites giving cues for additional information is an innovative and original concept. It combines the best of teaching and entertainment and makes these books something special. - Island Tides.

This is the third book in the Adventure.Net series which follows Willow and Rick as they travel across Canada with their parents.

This new series is unique as it incorporates intriguing non-fiction fact boxes and actual internet sites into the fiction story.
