Dead Men Do Tell Tales

Captain Jack Ketch is dead. There be no bones about it. His body lies at the bottom of the Indian Ocean, deep in Davy Jones's locker. Now, dead men don't usually tell tales, but the Captain is talking. His ghost's been seen haunting the harbor of Port Bourbon. Everyone in town is frightened to death. There's talk of a black spot, a lost treasure and a spirit doomed to haunt them all until a killer is brought to justice. The Governor has called everyone to "The Three Horseshoes" to find out who killed the Captain and why.
