Overview

The second generation of Rover Boys-Jack, Fred, and the twins Randy and Andy-are enjoying a summer vacation at Valley Brook Farm. Their holiday is filled with rivalries, including a high-stakes horse race that puts Jack at odds with the wealthy Joe Sedley for the affections of Ruth Stevenson. But the fun is shattered by devastating news from New York: The Rover Company's Wall Street office has been emptied in a daring hold-up, leaving the family on the brink of financial ruin. Just as all hope seems lost, Fred reveals a secret he's been keeping: a chance to hunt for the legendary lost treasure of the steam yacht Margarita, wrecked decades ago off the coast of Yucatan. Seeing it as their only chance to save their fathers from bankruptcy, the four cousins decide to finance and lead the dangerous expedition themselves. Their quest for the sunken gold is immediately fraught with peril. They must contend with treacherous storms, shifting sands, and a growing suspicion that their own deep-sea diver is plotting a mutiny to steal the treasure for himself. To make matters worse, a clue reveals that the very bandits responsible for the Wall Street robbery are hiding nearby in Mexico. Can the Rover Boys capture the criminals, survive the dangers of the sea, and win a fortune before their enemies-both old and new-destroy them?
