When something crashes through the trees behind the old farmhouse and burns a path to the lake, Kana and his cousin Davis learn how dangerous it can be to unravel a mystery. Is it a cruise missile? An alien space ship? Kana is a city kid stuck in the country for the weekend. Instead of skate parks and cell service, there are cow pies, dead chickens and a big dog named Gloop. Then there is Mason, the most annoying neighbor kid in the known universe. They can see the gleaming silver thing floating out in the lake. How will they retrieve it without Mason finding out? And what will they discover when they finally get it open?
