The Alden children discover their dog, Watch, has a knack for search and rescue. During training in Oregon, Watch uncovers a backpack brimming with jewelry that mysteriously fell from a plane. As they attempt to return it, the mystery thickens, leading them into an unexpected adventure. What secrets does the backpack hold, and who is its rightful owner?

From the publisher

On their trip to Oregon, the Aldens are excited to find out that Watch has the right skills to be a search and rescue dog! When they start training him in the woods one of the first things he “rescues” is a backpack filled with valuable jewelry–and it fell out of a plane! How could that have happened? When the children try to return the backpack to its owner, the mystery becomes even deeper!
