The Blood of the Cutlass

By Steve Hill

Hidden treasure! An impenetrable island! One boy's destiny! John the cabin boy dreams of fortune and glory! Instead, he's polishing purple boots on the worst pirate ship to ever sail at least a couple of the Seven Seas. When a palm reader declares that John will find the lost treasure of Captain Kidd, he is at last given his chance to shine. But will his sudden notoriety also bring death? With a bloodthirsty pirate following in his wake and a stowaway girl as his only friend, it will take all of John's courage--and a lot of Dutch cheese--to lead this shabby crew and discover that not all treasure comes buried in a chest. The Blood of the Cutlass is the first in a series of hilarious adventure books to be enjoyed by children aged 10 and up, and by the grown-ups who read with them.
