Twelve-year-old twins, Carl and Tina Brant, consider themselves the luckiest kids in the world when they find out they will be spending the summer with their parents in Emerald Isle, North Carolina. But little do they know that they are in for the adventure of a lifetime. Soon after their arrival, the twins learn about the story of Blackbeard from a local who tells them the notorious pirate may have buried treasure somewhere along the coast. The next day, Carl is searching the area for his lost kite when he trips over the handle of a cutlass concealed in the sand. After a well-known archaeologist hears about the sword and decides to explore the site, the twins find themselves involved in a complicated centuries-old mystery. As danger looms, only time will tell if their courageous exploration will lead them to unearth the legendary buried treasure before anyone else finds it. In this coastal thriller, twin siblings partner with an archaeologist to search for a pirate's buried treasure on the Carolina coast.
