It’s a pleasant Saturday morning in Hope Springs when aspiring young podcaster Rooney Lane arrives at her best friend Jay West’s house, and they make their way to celebrate the opening of the newly renovated Grand Depot. The town is abuzz and reporters Art Jameson and April Martin are on the scene to cover the excitement of the day. But not everyone is thrilled about the Grand Depot’s re-opening. Eleven-year-old Zach Sykes hides out in an old train car and plots his revenge for the loss of what used to be his “headquarters,” while his quirky father Ray Sykes stages a protest outside. When the loud explosion of a smoke bomb rattles through the depot, the Grand Opening is thrown off the rails.

In the aftermath of the smoke bombs at the Hope Springs Grand Depot, Jay and his newfound friend Brace – along with school friends Dante and Woodward – suspect Zach was behind the trouble. Dante’s mother, Detective Rose Hall, arrives to investigate the crime – and learns that it may have been more than a mere prank. In the Depot’s restored Telegraph Office, Jay and Brace meet Andrew Perry, nephew of Clark and an amateur historian, just as mysterious and urgent messages come in on the old telegraph machine – which isn’t supposed to work!
