Meet Cooper “Coop” Goodman who lives with his mother and paternal grandfather in the sleepy little town of Windy Bottom, Georgia. Near the end of the summer, Coop and his friends are caught up in the excitement of a new playground being built – that is until… A human skeleton was discovered during the excavation and so begins an investigation of a long-unsolved crime. To add to the mix, Coop’s own grandfather – a well-respected town doctor – is accused of having something to do with the crime. Is that because the skeleton was identified as the bones of the grandmother Coop never knew? Through the learning about the past from quirky characters that live in the quaint town, Coop is determined to clear his grandfather’s name. Does Coop really “know the scoop” to solve the mystery?
