Vanessa Jane and the Hidden Pirate Ship (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798232436285)

A ripped library page. A secret tunnel under school. And a pirate ship that should not exist.

In Port Townsend, Vanessa Jane and her tiny Yorkshire terrier puppy, Bruno, stumble onto a clue that leads straight into trouble-an underground path marked with strange symbols, clever traps, and a mystery no grown-up would ever believe. With her best friend Liam (and Bruno's super nose), Vanessa follows the trail to something impossible: an ancient pirate ship called the Stormcrow, hidden beneath their town.

But they're not the only ones searching.

A calm, dangerous stranger with keys to places he shouldn't enter is hunting the ship's lost logbook-because it doesn't just tell a pirate story. It holds proof that a powerful "town hero" betrayed Captain Maribel Drake long ago... and the truth was hidden in plain sight for over a century.

Now Vanessa, Bruno, and Liam must race through tunnels, library stacks, and even the clock tower itself-before the Crooked Crow steals the evidence and buries Port Townsend's secrets forever.
