The Aldens, recruited by a secret society, embark on a global quest to return stolen artifacts. Their journey begins with a painted turtle figurine and leads them to New Mexico.

Adventure awaits as they travel the world, uncovering secrets and facing challenges at every turn.

From the publisher

In this all-new very special mini-series, the Aldens have been recruited by a secret society to return lost artifacts and treasures to their rightful locations–all around the world! After finding a painted turtle figurine, the Aldens are introduced to the Silverton family and Reddimus Society, a secret guild whose mission is to return lost artifacts and treasures to the sites they were taken from. The Aldens board a private train to New Mexico to return the turtle to its original home, and they encounter enemies of Reddimus along the way! The trip is a success…but instead of returning home, there’s a last-minute change in plans. The Boxcar Children must continue the mission for the society and deliver more things, all around the globe!
