Their ancestors dated back as far as time can stretch. The Moustachios have been, and will always be, the Keepers of the Universe-Angelik Arkeepers to be exact, those special enough to be chosen to watch over all that is, was, and will be, and to protect all the secrets of the universe from the Deminion Darkeepers, who would dare do it harm. And it is those individuals who are evil enough to challenge what is pure, who will awaken the unsuspecting powers that lie within the mystical magnifying glass willed to the young sleuths by their beloved grandfather, Buck Moustachio. This magnifying glass, made of ancient Egyptian crystals, is able to transport the young detectives to worlds within hidden dimensions of the cosmos-worlds filled with smart-aleck talking animals, wickedly funny villains, and mysterious cases to solve. Two ark-magnifying glasses, two keys of life, one ancient box, and their grandpa's journal are all that stand in the way of saving the universe from its impending doom. A scavenger hunt across the ages awaits the young Moustachios as they are chased through time by the maniacal Baron Von Snodgrass, who will stop at nothing to seek his revenge on the Moustachio family. Secrets are revealed, and lies are told on the other side of their grandfather's magnifying glass.
