When Danni McAllister receives an antique pouch as a birthday gift from her grandfather, her first reaction is disappointment. "Don't assume that something is empty, just because there's nothing there," her grandfather warns. Danni learns that for nearly two hundred years, the mysterious pouch—with its aston- ishing hidden secrets—has been handed down from generation to generation, and each new owner has had to discover for them- selves how to access the power it holds, or suffer the penalty of using the pouch unwisely. While Danni struggles to understand the power of the pouch, her father's discovery of a rhodium mine makes her parents the targets of a deadly extortionist plot and the strange pouch is Danni's only hope of saving her family.
In the spirit of The Alliance, The Freedom Factor, and Leverage Point, author Gerald N. Lund blends gripping, fast-paced suspense with a timeless message for readers of all ages.
