Pirates on the Bay

The Virginia Mysteries, Book 10

By: Steven K. Smith

Narrated by: Tom McElroy

In the Golden Age of Piracy, none was more dreaded than Blackbeard. Sam, Derek, and Caitlin head for a week’s vacation at Virginia Beach, where 300 years ago, pirates sailed the waters off the Atlantic Coast. As the kids explore the beach, they find suspicious activity from the neighboring military base that points to the discovery of a historic shipwreck - maybe even lost pirate treasure!

When they meet a mysterious stranger named One-Eyed Jack, they’re captivated by the tale of Edward Teach, better known as the notorious pirate Blackbeard. Legend says he may have left valuable plunder buried in the nearby dunes before his final battle and violent death. Could the treasure still be out there, waiting to be discovered?

When the clues lead them on a perilous trip across the Chesapeake Bay, danger lurks at every turn. Will they find a hidden bounty, or will competing treasure seekers, or even Blackbeard’s ghost, send them to a watery grave at the bottom of the sea?

Fantastic action story for family listening

Narration excellent as usual for Virginia Mysteries books. Ending was a little disappointing compared to the rest of the series but still very enjoyable! We love listening to these on roadtrips with our family.
