Tom Trelawney is twelve years old and already has had amazing adventures. Earlier in the year Tom, and his uncle Hank, had searched in Peru for hidden gold purported to belong to Sir Francis Drake. That treasure hunt did not result in fame and fortune for the Trelawney family but now Uncle Hank is back in the picture and once again the stakes are very high.
