==========================================================================================
 

This mystery cache's location is encoded in a book cipher. The key text is in the title, the section is "The Fisherman And The Genie". After processing the cipher, take the first letter of each word and convert them into numbers by their position in the alphabet (for example, C would become 3). After that, enter the coordinates to find the location of the cache. Good luck cacher!
