Thirteen-year-old Zach, who enjoys the conveniences of television and Nintendo, isn't convinced that accompanying his family to the Yucatan Peninsula is the way he wants to spend his summer. On a deserted beach near the Mayan city of Tecsuna, Zach discovers a small golden crab. Inside the crab, he finds a map detailing tunnels which lie beneath the ancient ruins. Zach and his Mexican friend, Carlos, use the map to explore the tunnels and find secret entrances into parts of Tecsuna, leading them into the middle of an unexpected adventure that will change their lives forever.
