I ordered the book, A kind of treasure in itself.

Does anyone have both the ebook and the physical book yet? Any insights on differences between the two? I've only found that one photo with the arrows on either side, but it looks like the photo is from Justin Posey's dad's obituary. There were 79 photos attached to that obituary, and those same arrows on either of the photo. Those arrows aren't visible in the ebook version.

Part of me thinks this was more of a mistake than a clue. What do you all think?

@molibrarian I think he says on his website that any difference between the e-book and hard copy hold no significance.

@molibrarian I have the hard cover book, there are no pics of a memorial to Justins dad. There are no glossy pages or photos, the book seems cheaply made. Maybe it's a counterfeit book?

Also there is no pic of the container the treasure is in, only a fuzzy photo of the leather satchel! What gives??

@molibrarian I have been going through the text in both versions and am a page 126 in the hard cover book. I have found no differences whatever in the text between both versions to that point. I noticed that the e-book version lacks two photos so far: the one of his mother's first hunt showing the dead deer, and the photo that looks like it was taken from a small cave and shows him and two others during their expedition to the mountain lake when they almost got caught in a fire. Both references to the differences call them "subtle differences" but I can't find any others so far. Any ideas?

Page 107 Justin says they paid a hefty toll at  the bridge of embarrassment. Another nod toward Twin Bridges?

Two more things about the book. The word "three" appears enough times to get your attention, and the chapters aren't numbered, there titled.

Going through the hard copy book, I noticed missing page numbers. Most have an image in the corner which would make sense that it's not printed, but there are 3 pages without page numbers or images. Not sure what this means tho

The Cable Conundrum, I don't think "stage freight" is a miss spelling, I think it's a clue.

I think I might have found a bread crumb. A place I saw on Google Earth maps, seemed like I read it in the book. Reading the book again I found it. I'll see if it looks plausible, or just another dead end.

Story lines, The series, the book, the poem. Story lines carry us along, our brains love them because they don't require any work, they don't require any critical thinking. If we think we have found the check point, it might be worthwhile to go back and read the first chapter Mom's House. There game of, hide and seek might give us a clue, about what we would be looking for at the hiding place.
