Title: Gubbins’s Club: The Legend of Charlie’s Gold Genre: Middle Grade Action & Adventure Book Synopsis: X marks the spot. At least in fiction.

Smout and his ragtag group of friends must solve a series of strange clues and riddles to puzzle out the mysterious trail. But they're not the only ones in search of the gold. Someone as ruthless as the pirates of old is hot on their heels. Will they find the treasure before he finds them?
