When 15 year old Derek Wolfe and his friends learn that millions of dollars of Civil War gold is said to be buried somewhere in Taylor's Woods, they begin exploring the forest at every opportunity. When Derek and Tiffany discover a map in an old deserted house, it triggers a series of events that awaken old ghosts and allows a young girl to find out the truth about herself and her powers. Aided by two ghosts: one a runaway slave and the other a young Cherokee warrior who died on the Trail of Tears, Derek and his friends search for the gold while trying to stay out of the way of the ghost of Colonel Hunnicutt and his monstrous ghost hounds. The hunt for the gold intensifies when Derek's friend Amber Stone learns she is really the Storm Child, and begins to experiment with her new found powers.

A poignant memoir of growing up in Springfield, Tennessee on the "other side of the tracks" in a section called South Town. It's about the meager life of the poor and how most overcame their economical struggles in the '40s and the '50s.
