"In this sequel to The Curse of the Blue Figurine, Johnny Dixon's grandmother falls ill with a brain tumor. In order to help Johnny with the stress, his friend Professor Childermass takes him to spend some time away from home. Once on holiday, Johnny works to solve a riddle that will reveal the hiding place of the lost fortune of the late Mr. Glomus. Johnny is determined to find the hiding place of the dead man's will because there is a $10,000 reward for whoever can solve the puzzle of it's hiding place. Even though Johnny friend, Professor Childermass, tells Johnny to stay away from Mr. Glomus's house, Johnny doesn't listen.
