After all, no one knows what happened to the most valuable gold mine in the Superstition Mountains after a banshee frightened off the last owner.
But when England Dan gets a good look at the map, details start clicking into place. Maybe they have the key to a fortune after all!

Now England Dan and his partner will have to fight off hostile Indians, miners, and a dangerous felon to find the cache of gold and strike it rich.
