In a small, Nebraska town, Ted Hammond finds a real life mystery, when he sees a face in the window of an abandoned farm house, while on his paper route. The sixth-grader, who loves mysteries, decides this is one that he can solve on his own, and resolves to get to the bottom of it. He finds a girl, and her family, who are hiding out. He agrees to help them, and promises not to give away their secret. When they disappear, he must figure out what happened to them, and whom can he trust.
