Having gotten out of New Orleans with Tumen's family's medallion and starting for the Yucatan, Jack and his crew are captured by Captain Laura Smith, who is Arabella's mother. Now Arabella wants answers and is not happy with what she is getting from her mother. When Jack overhears plots of a mutiny, he throws in with Captain Laura only to lose his first mate.

I enjoyed this story. It's short but a lot is happening between the pirates, mutiny, and the medallion. The crew is great and mysteries must be solved. We learn Tim Hawks' story and have to decide if he is true. The pirates of Captain Laura's crew are villainous and you know all will meet up again. I am looking forward to the meet-up and I want to see the medallion returned to Tumen's great-grandfather.

In this book Arabella is reunited with her mother, Laura. She and her mother don't get along. The crew tries to mutiny against the mother. Jack Sparrow displays some of his trademark cleverness. Overall, this book is a nice addition to the series.

I highly recommend this series for younger readers. Not only does it feature the one and only Captain Jack Sparrow, but it also offers a unique and interesting origin story for the characters for fans who wish to get more of him! I was not disappointed in the slightest. It is definitely a good pick for Elementary and Middle School readers!

Uma história de aventura que alcança tanto jovens quanto adultos, essa é a mágica de livros infanto-juvenil de aventura. E é perfeita para aperfeiçoar o espanhol! Conheci palavras novas e simples, com poucos termos difíceis ou nunca lidos/ouvidos, por se referir a um vocabulário "pirata".

This one is the last one that I have read, and it is a real cliff hanger! I have to read the seventh!
