It had been hours since he’d seen land, and he suspected he was miles off course somewhere over the Atlantic Ocean. “If I only had a compass,” he thought. Looking for a place to rest his ears, the flying mouse finds himself on board the Sails of Plunder – the cursed vessel of the Caribbean. In spite of the curse, a dark misty cloud hovering above, Buttermouse remains on board the pirate ship to keep a running account of his new and adventurous life. In his journal, Buttermouse writes of life on board a pirate ship, Captain Pillage’s nasty deeds, historically accurate methods of piracy, and an encounter with the Barracuda – a ruthless female bandit. And at the crux of the story (the haunting of Captain Pillage and his band of cutthroats), Buttermouse boards a ghost ship inhabited by a crew of revenging dead souls in the form of walking, talking skeletal remains. Survival hangs in the balance.
