Jean Derwood's biggest hope is that one day she will do something brave or heroic and prove she is not a coward. When she goes to visit her Uncle Rufus in Alabama, and learns that a stolen jewel may be hidden nearby, she has to convince her parents to let her stay and take part in the adventure.

This book is Christian fiction for upper elementary and middle school aged students.

Written by Jeri Maasi and published by Bob Jones University Press in 1987, this is part of the Peabody series, which is still available from the publisher.

This copy has a few cover dings and worn spots, but is clean, tightly bound, and unmarked. A remarkable find!
