The Goonies meets Book Scavenger in the second book of this middle grade duology about three sisters hunting for Blackbeard's legendary treasure!
Savannah Dare has taken up the mantle of treasure hunter, passed down by her grandfather—and she's recruited her two sisters to join the crew!
But it turns out there's a reason Blackbeard's treasure has been missing for centuries. Most of Savannah's neighbors think it doesn't even exist. But the sisters have a key—a literal, golden, jewel-encrusted key—and they're determined to find what it unlocks with the help of clues and puzzles their grandfather left behind.
Their voyage of discovery leads them to a trove of family secrets and betrayals, and soon Savannah has to ask herself what price she's willing to pay in return for the ultimate prize.

      The treasure hunt continues! Inspired by local pirate lore, sisters Savannah, Frankie, and Jolene Dare are back following the trail of their late Grandpa's search for treasure. It's been a month since the last break in the confounding clues, leading them to what might be Blackbeard's lost treasure or at least his sunken ship, the Queen Anne's Revenge. It may also reveal the deed to their house, which is supercritical since their grandfather's old business partner wants to get his hands on the place. Thankfully, the sisters now have more people aiding them in their quest, like their cousins and Sav's best friend. Through ciphers, knowledge of North Carolina's Ocracoke Island, and Sav's ability to follow their Grandpa's train of thought, the intrepid team hunts through their small community. This time, they investigate a lighthouse, the local library (via the card catalog; this is 1996), their attic, the depths of the sea through sonar, and communications from what may be Blackbeard's ghost. Rinker creates a world brimming with the exuberance of middle-grade tales set in a pre-internet world--with the bonus excitement of a pirate mystery. As the protagonist and narrator, Sav is ever determined, often hyperfocused, and sometimes in trouble despite her honest intentions. The cast defaults to White. Readers will set sail for adventure. (author's note) (Fiction. 8-13)
