Billy Parker and The Mystery of the Lost Confederate Gold

Billy Parker is the quintessential 1960s kid-bursting with energy and an insatiable appetite for adventure. Life revolves around the few square miles of the Don Valley that Billy considers his territory until he makes a discovery that will drag him and his pals into a deepening mystery.
The valley has secrets that are better left alone.

Augustus Bridle grew up in Don Mills, Ontario, Canada in the '60s. It was a unique place, being the first post-war, planned community in Canada, and a unique time, during the cold war. Now retired after a thirty-year career in the commuter transportation industry, Augustus has woven a tale of fact and fiction that strives to give the flavour of the time. Many of the characters and events, including Aunt Emily, are taken from his own childhood.
