The Secret Astoria Scavenger Hunt

The Goonies Anniversary Celebration…a Victorian haunted house…and three Astoria tweens ready for adventure…

A big "Goonies" event brings Seattle tween Morgan to Astoria, Oregon, for an action-packed weekend with her younger Astoria cousins, Sean and Ronan. The Anniversary festivities are in full swing at this historic riverfront town, plus the boys just entered a spooky contest inspired by the movie. When the boys ask Morgan to help them win the grand prize, she's determined to make their weekend together the most thrilling ever!

But there's something really peculiar about the bed-and-breakfast where Morgan, almost thirteen, and her mom are staying. When an even more outlandish girl at the B&B asks the three to go on a cryptic quest on her behalf—a scavenger hunt that could help the boys win the contest—Morgan and her cousins begin a rollicking visit to Astoria's most famous spots.  Yet as the suspenseful hunt kicks into high gear, they discover a mysterious boy is following them... Or even haunting them.

Will Morgan, Sean and Ronan be able to escape from the powerful forces of old Astoria's past?  Or will they remain trapped in a world of legends and dangerous secrets?
