Ken Holt and Sandy Allen are asked by Ken's father,
Richard, to do some preliminary research on a long standing land
feud in Colorado. The boys drive out west in their new red
convertible, given to them by a consortium of insurance companies,
for solving their initial mystery, "The Secret of Skeleton
Island"
The feud between John Raymond and Chet Wilson, in Mesa
Alta, revolves around boundary markers. When a key piece of
evidence disappears, it is apparent to Ken and Sandy that this
dispute is also a mystery. While investigating several leads the
boys have to use all their wits and strength to escape a deadly
trap laid for them. But who are the villains ?
Aided by Bowleg, the cowboy, Ken and Sandy run down every
clue in an effort to resolve this complicated mystery. It's not
until the boys fight a pitched battle in a dark tunnel that the
villains are unmasked, the dastardly means of their deception
revealed, and "The Riddle of the Stone Elephant" is
solved.
