Andrea Talbot and her brother Tony take one more trip through time - to find their grandfather's long-lost notebook and to help keep the Ku Klux Klan from taking root in Moose Jaw.

Andrea and Tony have no plans for another trip into Moose Jaw's nefarious tunnels. They've only come back to the city to visit Grandpa Vance Talbot, seriously ill in the hospital. Andrea is amazed when Grandpa asks her to travel through time to look for a special notebook he had as a young man.

Back in the tunnels, they find their task is much more difficult than just finding a notebook. For one thing, they have to solve a mystery that has troubled Grandpa Vance throughout his life - how did his friend Jack die, so many decades ago? Was it an accident? Or was it murder?

Plus, the terrifying Ku Klux Klan has descended on Moose Jaw, spreading its message of intolerance and threatening Tony's friend Mr. Wong. Andrea and Tony have to help expose the Klan for what it is - an organization designed to promote hatred between groups in society and to make money for its unscrupulous leaders.

In this new thriller in the exciting "Moose Jaw Adventure" series from best-selling writer Mary Harelkin Bishop, Andrea Talbot takes an unwilling third trip to the spooky tunnels under Moose Jaw and uncovers the exploitation of Chinese immigrant workers.

Andrea has already had two adventures in the notorious Moose Jaw tunnels. Travelling back in time to the 1920s, she's been forced to work for Al Capone (Tunnels of Time) and helped shut down a ring of thieves (Tunnels of Terror). But it's scary down in the tunnels, and she has no desire to go back. That part of her life is closed! Then her friends Kami and Eddie Wong are accidentally thrust into the tunnels.

Andrea, now fifteen years old, has no choice but to go back in time to rescue them - with the help of her ten-year-old brother Tony. She finds a shocking new problem in the tunnels. Indentured Chinese workers toil in miserable conditions, for pitifully small wages. Smuggled into Canada by unscrupulous operators, they have no choice but to keep working - to save money to pay the infamous Head Tax the Canadian government imposes on Chinese immigrants.

In this harsh world, Kami and Eddie are mistaken for indentured workers. Kami is sent to work in a laundry, Eddie to unload produce in a grocery store. Andrea is outraged at the treatment of the Chinese workers. Many people are profiting from this ruthless exploitation, none more than the nasty crook in charge of it all, Mean-Eyed Max. Andrea has to save her friends, but what about the other workers? With the help of her friends and the mysterious Mr. Wong, she and Tony help catch the bad guys and rescue the workers too.

Thirteen-year-old Andrea Talbot doesn't want to go to Moose Jaw for her cousin Vanessa's wedding. She's going to miss a really cool bike trip and she's not taking it very well. At a family dinner party in a local restaurant, Andrea agrees to look at what she thinks is just a phony tourist attraction - tunnels beneath the streets of Moose Jaw. Legend has it that in Prohibition days the tunnels sheltered crooks, maybe even the notorious Al Capone himself! Andrea scoffs, until she has a small accident with a mirror at the tunnel entrance and wakes up in another time. Unable to return to the present, Andrea is caught up in a dangerous underground adventure. A teenage boy, Vance, finds her a job - working as a courier for the very criminals whose existence she dismissed - including their menacing leader, a man she knows only as Scarface. When she overhears information about a police raid, Andrea has to decide what to do. Should she help Scarface escape? Or should she help Vance, who is running for his life after a run-in with Scarface? And whatever she decides, will Andrea ever get back to the present?

Fourteen-year-old Andrea travels once again to Moose Jaw, where she and her diabetic younger brother Tony soon get stuck in the perilous past in the now dangerous tunnels with Beanie, Vance and a gang of thieves.

When Lou crashes their pickup on a dark and snowy road, child services separate the mother-daughter duo. Now she has to start all over again at a fancy private school far away from anything she's ever known. With help from an outgoing new friend, her aunt and uncle, and the school counselor, she begins to see things differently. A sensory processing disorder isn't something to be ashamed of, and music might just be the thing that saves Lou—and maybe her mom, too.

From award-winning author and illustrator Scot Ritchie comes this lively look at the journey of a West Coast tugboat towing a log boom, as seen through the eyes of a young boy.
