The mystery of Minerva's parents is pushed aside once again when the ghost of old Black Bart, a cruel pirate, wreaks havoc in the village of Pembrose. Legend has it that the old pirate was so mean during his life that his spirit cannot find peace until he performs a good deed. Minerva is certain that she can convince Bart to do just that, but first she and her friends have to find him. Will the search for Black Bart's spirit lead Minerva and her friends into danger?

Elisa Puricelli Guerra was born in Milan, Italy. She always dreamed of becoming a writer (or an astronaut or a witch) and her love of books was born when her mother read the Pippi Longstocking books to her her aloud. Like Pippi, Guerra has red hair - a fact that has caused many problems. She never got away with anything in school, because her flaming read hair always caught the attention of the teachers. As a writer, she often gives the main characters in her stories red hair, too, but she makes them extra clever, so they get away with a bit more than she did. Guerra also works as a freelance writer and translator, but if she could make a living by just reading, that is exactly what she would do!
