Book 1
13-year-old Casey has recently moved with his family to the Alberta town of Richford. Casey seeks refuge from a snowstorm in an abandoned farmhouse and stumbles upon his nearly frozen science teacher. Casey searches the house for something to make a fire with. In the attic he makes a frightening discovery -- a sophisticated office filled with computers, a printer, and racist posters! Richford is harbouring a cell of white racists who are targeting everyone they deem "alien." The RCMP and Casey's hacker brother get involved in the mystery, but it's Casey who leads the investigation into a warped world where hate is marketed on the Internet and innocent people are preyed on by bigots and bullies.
Book 2
Casey Templeton is in a bind when he must foil a burglary of dinosaur bones.
While helping with a real dinosaur dig at the world-famous Royal Tyrrell Museum, Casey Templeton finds a piece of dinosaur tooth. Excited, he spends all afternoon looking for the rest of the tooth, but all he ends up getting is a nasty sunburn. Lying in his hotel room that night, trying to recover, he sees and hears two men in a nearby room planning a robbery of precious artifacts from the Tyrrell.
Later, Casey tells the museum's curator (and old family friend), Dr. Norman, what he has seen and heard. Dr. Norman hires Casey to keep a watch out at the museum for the robbers. No luck.
As the summer comes to an end, Casey and his friend Mandy decide to relax and take a bicycle jaunt north of Drumheller. But on the road they accidentally meet up with the conspirators and soon find themselves in a grim situation. Casey has to use all his ingenuity and skills to escape so he can try to help thwart the planned heist. Can he do it?
