AJ Torres and the Treasure of Captain Greyshark
By José Pablo Iriarte

When AJ and his best friend Jayden find a gold dubloon washed up on the shore after a hurricane they think they may have found the answer to many of their problems. Jayden’s mom is out of work and they may need to move for her to find a new job. AJ’s parents’ business if flailing. If they could find a hidden treasure that could solve all of their problems!

Plenty of adventure and anticipation follow the crew as they team up with a local ghost hunter, Andrea, and a charter boat captain, Gil, to head out in search of the treasure. Mishaps and misunderstandings and a crew of ghost pirates follow them as they search on and around Scream Island.

Ages 8-12 years
