THE SPLIT ROCK MYSTERY

Dick Weston does not anticipate, when he and his grandmother set off on a New England summer vacation, that he will shortly be involved in a maze of intrigue and domestic complexity. But when a difficult neighbor tries to cloud the boundaries of the Weston's property and does everything to drive them from their land, Dick and his local friends set about trying to establish their land rights and end up reconciling the predatory and embittered neighbor to a sister whom he has loved and banished. Fast paced, the inclusion of surveying techniques adds a novel touch to this mystery.
