Mike is prepared for another routine summer in Pensacola with his marine biologist father. But plans suddenly change and Mike finds himself on Shipwreck Island��ear the site where a Confederate
ship sank and right in the middle of a century-old mystery! Although the ship was rumored to be carrying newly minted gold coins, no trace of the wreck and not even a single piece of
Confederate gold has ever been found. Mike and his new friend Kyle are intrigued by a salvage ship anchored just offshore. Some say it was brought in by fortune hunters searching for the
long-lost Confederate ship and its treasure. But when the boys scale a fence at the fort on the island and explore a section closed off to the public, they realize that the fortune hunters may
be looking in the wrong place. There in the sand-covered floor of an abandoned chamber they spot something shiny: an old double-eagle gold coin. Mike and Kyle agree to keep their discovery a
secret and start their own investigation into the shipwreck and the missing gold.
