Introduction[]

Captain Jack Sparrow is a pirate without a ship. Robbed of it by a mutinous crew, he wants it back. Nothing will stop him – not event the British Navy or cursed Aztec Gold. But Jack's quest turns out to be more difficult than he imagined when a rebellious governor's daughter and a plucky blacksmith get in the way. Recovering the Black Pearl isn't the end of Jack's adventures in the Caribbean. Just as he thinks he is safe, a ghostly comrade appears to remind him of a bargain he made thirteen years ago. Then his only hope of saving himself lies in finding a mysterious chest –; and the beating heart within it.
