Paulie the parrot, first mate aboard the ship of The Gingerbread Pirate, lights upon a journal promising her exactly what she's been looking for. Recounting the cataclysmic destruction of an entire civilization, the journal leads Paulie, the Captain and their crew through violently troubled waters, on to a cove where uncovering the clues leading to the immense treasure left behind in the lost civilization's extinction they must fight for their lives against a terrifying blood-thirsty beast. Past seagulls intent on devouring the Captain, a spirit-guided sea creature seeking its own retribution, and a shadowing thief who lay solely responsible for the initial loss of the treasure and untimely end of the civilization's lone survivor, Paulie and the crew must pull together in an effort to save themselves from a similarly unwelcome fate, all while searching for the fabled treasure promising her and her shipmates a remarkable future along with memories that will last a lifetime.
