Last in a long line of rebels / Tyre, Lisa Lewis

When the city of Zollicoffer, Tennessee, where her family lives, announces plans to seize their one hundred seventy-five year old house through eminent domain, twelve-year-old Louise Mayhew needs to come up with a way to save it--and her ancestor's Civil War diary linking the house to the Underground Railroad, as well as a hidden treasure, seem to offer her family the best chance of saving their home.

Lou and Benzer prayed for their summer to be exciting, but not in the bad way that seems to be happening--the county wants to take Lou's house away from her family. To save it, Lou and Benzer try to solve a mystery about Lou's great-great-great-grandfather and the gold he stole during the Civil War. In the search she finds her great-great-great-grandmother's diary and learns a heap about her family's colorful past.

When their Tennessee town announces plans to seize her family's 175-year-old house through eminent domain, twelve-year-old Louise Mayhew needs to come up with a way to save it.
