Joel and Emma never expected to spend the summer searching for untold millions in gold and jewels on famous Oak Island. But soon after their adventurer uncle Jake telephones them in British Columbia to ask for their help with the excavations, they're in the air flying to the coast of Nova Scotia. Exploring the island on their bikes, Joel and Emma find intriguing hints of the treasure's whereabouts: an ancient rock painting and cryptic Latin inscriptions. When a mysterious old man appears and gives them one final clue, they're sure they have all the pieces of the Oak Island puzzle. But as Uncle Jake's dig starts to fall apart, they have to race to put the pieces together in time. Set against the background of one of the most famous treasure hunts of all time, The Secret Treasures of Oak Island is the action-packed story of a summer quest for pirate gold.

It started on a summer afternoon in 1795 when a young man named Daniel McGinnis found what appeared to be an old site on an island off the Acadian coast, a coastline fabled for the skullduggery of pirates. The notorious Captain Kidd was rumored to have left part of his treasure somewhere along here, and as McGinnis and two friends started to dig, they found what turned out to be an elaborately engineered shaft constructed of oak logs, nonindigenous coconut mats, and landfill that came to be known as the Money Pit. Ever since that summer day in 1795, the possibility of what might be hidden in the depths of a small island off the south coast of Nova Scotia, Canada, has made it the site of the world's longest, most expensive, and most perplexing treasure hunt. Author D'Arcy O'Connor recounts the fascinating stories and amazing discoveries of past and current treasure seekers who have sought Oak Island's fabled treasure for over two hundred years. It has baffled scientists and madmen, scholars and idiots, millionaires and get-rich-quick schemers, psychics, engineers, charlatans, and even a former president of the United States. The island has consumed the fortunes-and in some cases, the lives-of those who have obsessively set out to unlock its secret. Despite all their efforts, the mystery remains unsolved, and not a single dime of treasure has ever been recovered. The present-day search is an archaeological dig exceeding anything ever done anywhere for similar purposes, and it may well result in the discovery of one of the world's richest and most historically significant treasures. But this is also the story of individuals who have dedicated years of their lives to discover what was buried long ago beneath this strange island. They are driven by a lust for gold, by archaeological curiosity, and by their determination to outwit the engineer who was responsible for the Oak Island enigma.

The Oak Island mystery has been the world’s greatest and strangest treasure hunt, and after years of research the authors have finally solved the sinister with an answer that is challenging, controversial, and disturbing. In 1795 three boys discovered the top of an ancient shaft on uninhabited Oak Island in Mahone Bay, Nova Scotia. The boys began to dig, and what they uncovered started the world’s greatest and strangest treasure hunt but nobody knows what the treasure is. Two hundred years of courage, back-breaking effort, ingenuity, and engineering skills have failed to retrieve what is concealed there. Theories of what the treasure could be include Captain Kidd’s bloodstained pirate gold, an army payroll left by the French or British military engineers, priceless ancient manuscripts, the body of an Arif or other religious refugee leader, or the lost treasure of the Templars. The Oak Island curse prophesies that the treasure will not be found until seven men are dead and the last oak has fallen. That last oak has already gone, and six treasure hunters have been killed. After years of research, the authors have finally solved the sinister riddle of Oak Island, but their answer is challenging, controversial, and disturbing. Something beyond price still lies waiting in the labyrinth.

When Emma's Uncle Jake comes to Vancouver to talk about his latest fortune-hunting adventure, little does she imagine that she is on her way to becoming a treasure-seeker herself. Jake is going to dig at a world-renowned treasure site--Oak Island, Nova Scotia. Over the past 150 years many people have tried to retrieve the treasure that lies in the bottom of the so-called money pit. None has been successful. Jake persuades Emma's parents to let her and her brother Joel fly from Vancouver to Nova Scotia to spend a few weeks on the island while the dig is on. It will be a great adventure. They will witness an event that will break on national and international news media. In addition, Jake tells his brother that it will be good for Emma for her recovery. She has recently been in a car accident in which she lost an arm. Emma and Joel are thrilled. When they get to the island Jake gives them each a new bike and they set off to explore. Their discovery of a very old 'cave' drawing adds an unexpected side to Jake's project. Things begin to fall apart when the financial backers lose faith in Jake. Although the treasure chest is in sight, the work has to come to a stand still and the heavy equipment has to be returned to the mainland. But Emma and Joel's chance encounter with a kindly ghost helps Jake fulfill at least part of his dream. This young adult adventure is based on factual information about the 'money pit' on Oak Island and the attempts to retrieve it.

“Crooker, who is a good historian and also quite witty, tells a tale of folly and obsession” surrounding the legendary treasure off of Canada’s east coast (Booklist). For over two centuries, the mysterious labyrinth of shafts and tunnels under Oak Island, a tiny island on Nova Scotia’s South Shore, has been the scene of a frantic search by scores of treasure hunters from two continents. They believe that the shafts and intricate man-made flooding system hold the secret to a treasure of untold wealth. Although millions have been spent, bitter feuds have erupted, and men have died, the treasure has remained as elusive as the answers to who built the labyrinth, why and how it was constructed, and the nature of the treasure itself. Until now. In his second book on the Oak Island mystery, William Crooker meticulously sifts through the evidence unearthed by treasure hunters on the island, past and present. Then, armed with some starling new discoveries, he neatly fits the pieces together to offer a plausible solution to the baffling puzzle of Oak Island. “Crooker, an engineer and surveyor, presents both a thorough historical review of the various digs and a look at all the theories about the treasure.” —Library Journal
