Reeya Rai and her best friend Finlay are thrilled to learn about an emperor’s lost treasure during their archaeologist parents’ tour of Madagascar. Libertalia, a fabled lost pirate town believed to have been built in Madagascar, could be the treasure’s hiding spot.
Before the group heads to explore a nature reserve in search of the pirate town, Reeya and friends create a spyglass to help direct their path. Will they find Libertalia? Will other treasure hunters beat them to it? Or is the whole thing just a legend?
