The Curious Capers of Cora and Captain Clawhugs: The Case of the Buried Backyard Treasure

A rusty key. A forgotten treasure map. A pirate who may have been real. And one extremely determined cat.

When Cora visits Gramom and Papa’s old farmhouse outside Pebblewick, she expects gardens, family time, and perhaps a few tomatoes. She does not expect to uncover the beginning of a century-old treasure hunt.

With Captain Clawhugs—her slightly cross-eyed, captain-hat-wearing Siamese sidekick—at her side, Cora follows a trail of riddles through an ancient oak, a mossy pond, a forgotten memory garden, a secret treehouse, and a rose-covered gazebo.

But the deeper Cora digs, the more she realizes she isn’t simply following the clues of the mysterious Captain Beatrix Binx. She’s retracing an adventure Gramom began as a little girl.

And the treasure waiting at the end may be far more valuable than gold.

A funny, heartwarming mystery about curiosity, family, friendship, and discovering that the greatest treasures are often the stories we leave behind.
