Jim, a young lad, who recently lost his father is thrust into a whirlwind adventure with roguish pirates who love gold almost as much as spirits.
Inheriting a treasure map from old Billy Bones throws Jim into a mission where cunning actions are more valuable than rubies. Being young in years doesn't hamper the accomplishments of our hero when the villains deter him from survival. Even though the island reeks of death, Jim boldly goes where no man has gone before ... Will he survive, assist his comrades and locate the desired fortune?
If you crave a classic novel about the high seas where you are mystified about the outcome as you quickly turn the pages ... Then arrrgh! Pick up yer spy glass and search fer yer copy of Stevenson's spectacular story before me stick ya with me cutlass. Ye won't be disappointed.
When an adventure is at hand ...
