After an unexpected visit from a Canadian military officer, asking pointed questions about the family history, Jeremy's 70-year-old Aunt Kasia sends Jeremy on a treasure hunt through the forests surrounding Douro, Ontario. Kasia equips Jeremy with maps and journals passed down through generations of the Obara family, and following maps dating from the 1940s, Jeremy discovers the cavern where Agata has lain asleep for a century.
