A second adventure for Will and his brothers from the creator of "Artemis Fowl", and following the success of "The Legend of Spud Murphy". They are on holiday on the wild Irish coast; Will's older brother starts telling the bloodcurdling tale of the cut- throat pirate, Captain Crow. Will is scared, and things start to go wrong for him. Has Captain Crow put a curse on him? This is the perfect combination of spookiness, families and fun that will have 7-9 year olds on the edge of their seats, and the story is complemented by the witty illustrations of Tony Ross.
Synopsis

Is it another one of Marty's tricks, or could Captain Crow's ghost really be out to get him? This work is intended for boys and girls aged 7-9 years.
