Book 7—The Legend of Annie Murphy

In 1885, Cyrus Murphy struck gold in his Bodine, Arizona mine. According to town legend, his wife, Annie Murphy, murdered him out of greed. Just before she was to be hanged for the murder, she made a run for freedom and was shot trying to escape. Now, more than a hundred years later, some people in Bodine have reported seeing Annie Murphy's “ghost.” The Coopers interrupt their vacation to investigate the stories and stumble across a truth that is even stranger than they could have guessed. The Coopers unwittingly become involved in a mystery that spans a century, finding themselves caught up in a puzzle whose solution lies hidden somewhere between the past and the present.

Book 6—The Deadly Curse of Toco-Rey

Lila and Jay Cooper have joined their dad on a mission to the jungles of Central America, where a group of American treasure hunters have already become the victims of the deadly curse of Toco-Rey. How did these explorers really meet their end? In their search for answers, the Coopers come face to face with the many dangers that the jungle holds— natives armed with deadly darts, traps set by an ancient civilization, and swarms of poisonous flying slugs. Before Dr. Cooper can solve the mystery, his children are kidnapped and his integrity is put to the test. What price will he pay to get his children back? Is the treasure in the burial tomb of Kachi-Tochetin really worth more than gold?

Book 5—The Secret of the Desert Stone

Biblical archeologist Dr. Jacob Cooper and his children, Jay and Lila, arrive in the African country of Togwana with one goal—to discover the secret behind the two-mile-high Stone that has mysteriously appeared overnight. Who could have excavated, carved, and transported such a colossal Stone without leaving any evidence of their work? What does the Stone mean? Is it the evil omen that many of the people of Togwana believe it to be? The Coopers' uneasiness soon turns into dread as they realize they are being kept in the watchful eye of the country's new government and its brutal dictator, Idi Nkromo. Nkromo wants the Stone removed and will not tolerate failure. Will the Coopers get to the bottom of the mystery that has put their very lives in danger? The answers to their many questions may come in unexpected places.

Book 4—Trapped at the Bottom of the Sea

Returning early from one of her father's expeditions, Lila Cooper is aboard an Air Force plane that is hijacked. Now she is a prisoner in a top-secret weapons pod—trapped at the bottom of the sea with no escape. Meanwhile, Lila's father, Dr. Cooper; her brother, Jay; and daring journalist Meaghan Flaherty travel to a remote corner of the Pacific in search of the missing plane. With a cannibal tribe ahead of them and a band of angry terrorists in hot pursuit, can they reach Lila before it's too late?

Book 3—The Tombs of Anak

When Jay and Lila Cooper and their archaeologist father enter the tombs of Anak, they hope to find Dr. Cooper's missing co-worker. Instead, they stumble onto a frightening religion and new mysteries that soon plunge them all into incredible danger. Who or what is Ha-Raphah? Why do the local villagers fear him? Will the Coopers understand the truth in time to avoid disaster, or will they be swept away by Ha-Raphah's desperate last attempt to preserve his evil powers?

Book 2—Escape from the Island of Aquarius

Odd things are happening on the exotic South Pacific island of Aquarius—and those things are raising some unusual questions. Could the tyrannical leader of the island colony be the missing person Dr. Jacob Cooper has been sent to find? If so, why is he acting so strangely? Deadly perils lie in store for the Coopers as they seek to solve the mystery. The only hope for Jay, Lila, and their father is to find a way to overcome the evil that holds the colonists in its grip before the entire island disintegrates.

Book 1—The Door in the Dragon's Throat

Making their way through a dark and mysterious cavern, Jay and Lila Cooper can't help wondering what really lies behind the Door in the Dragon's Throat—riches from a lost kingdom . . . or an ancient evil? As they seek to unlock the truth about the sinister legends, they find comfort in the certainty that God has protected them from danger many times before. But will Jay and Lila be able to conquer the force that lurks behind the Door in the Dragon's Throat?
