Life is getting more dismal by the minute in the town of Sultana, Manitoba. Thanks to a dry season that nearly dried up the river, no one wants to camp there anymore. There aren't enough tourists to keep the local restaurant busy and, if Cody's best friend's mom loses her job there, the family will have to move away.
Cody, his best friend, Eric, and Eric's twin sister, Rachel, concoct an elaborate hoax that transforms this tiny town into a hotbed of activity-a hoax involving an "ancient Egyptian" tablet discovered in Sultana.
Soon the tourists come flooding back, but Cody, Eric, and Rachel discover that they should have been more careful about what they wished for. This quirky caper will appeal to children aged eight to ten.
