This book contains three individual stories, set between 1861 and 1867. The first story "Pony Express" is about a 14-year-old boy, Ben O'Brien, and his 17-year-old sister, Margaret, who have lost their parents and all the horses on the horse ranch due to a Paiute Warrior attack.

The two cousins Ethan and Calum, who had spent so much of their summer vacations and holidays at their grandparents’ ranch through the years, were growing up. They would soon be going to college and getting jobs. Ethan’s younger siblings, Logan and Elyssa, and Cal’s younger sister, Cara, were also teenagers. They did not want their carefree days of going on exciting ranch adventures and making interesting discoveries to ever end.

Pioneer parents, Hannah and Jacob, instilled Christian values in their three children by example. Their son, Samuel, and neighbor Elizabeth, both 15, discover they are in love but must wait out a two-month separation while Samuel accompanies his father on his first cattle drive. Esther gets kidnapped by Comanches. Caleb goes off hunting on his own and deals with a hunting accident. The families endure their hardships and challenges through faith and the power of prayer.

Candice and Alley are high school seniors and officers on their high school dance team. They also discover they are very good at solving mysteries after their team captain disappears. With the help of their best friends, Zeke, and Ryan, who are on the football team, they win their local police chief's support (who names them The Dance Team Detectives) while they solve the kidnapping of their team captain, threats to human life, and even murder. They even discover one of their own, who had been adopted as a baby, has a twin.

Mysteries is the fifth book in the Gus the Ghost-Face Dog Series. Five cousins and their dogs spend their school vacations at their grandparents’ ranch in the Texas Hill Country. They have discovered a secret passage to the past whenever they go to sleep next to the old pioneer ruins. When they find a carved message in an old oak tree from a pioneer friend Ethan met on a previous time travel trip, the kids decide to go back in time to help...where they encounter a very dangerous situation.

This book combines the characters from the “Gus, the Ghost-Face Dog” series with the characters from “The Dance Team Detectives.” Both sets of characters have a family connection and visit the same family ranch. The characters are older now, and their adventures are even more challenging. In the first two stories, the Mitchell siblings and cousins investigate the theft of a priceless family heirloom, and then attempt to rescue herds of wildlife from poachers.
