"Penny Allen and the Mystery of the Hidden Treasure" by Jean L. McKechnie is a novel written in the mid-20th century. The story centers around the Allen siblings—Penny, Philip, Jimmy, and Marjorie—as they open their summer lodge in Michigan. On their quest to uncover rumored buried treasure, they encounter mysteries and risks that threaten their safety, set against the backdrop of youthful adventures and budding romances. The opening portion of the book introduces the Allen siblings just as they prepare to open their lodge for guests. We learn about their recent transition from orphans to caretakers of their family’s summer hotel, with each sibling taking on specific roles in this endeavor. Penny is eager and optimistic, while Philip carries the weight of responsibility. As they work to ready the lodge, they are also intrigued by local rumors of hidden treasure, leading them to the possibility of exciting new adventures. The siblings’ dynamic is explored, highlighting their playful banter and the complexities of their changing lives, while hints of potential danger loom with a mysterious anonymous letter foreshadowing conflict.
