Geocache Description:


The Secret is a book written by Byron Priess in 1982 which tells the story of "The Fair People" and their journies to North America, in addition to this a large part of the book and what has garnered it so much popularity is the fact that there are cryptic instructions to 12 real world buried treasures contained within the book, all one has to do is work out which town/city a photo is related to and match it to a verse, however this is much harder than it sounds as shown by the find history - as of the publication of this cache only three of the twelve treasures have been found, the first in 1983 in Chicago, the second in 2004 in Cleveland and the third in Boston in 2019. With nine treasures still up for grabs maybe you could be the next person to join the most excusive group of treasure hunters in the world.
