Harbor Island, non lontana dalla baia di Witherport, è il paradiso dei pescatori, ma solamente per poco più di un mese all'anno. Che cosa ne è di quest'eremo ricoperto di rocce e di alberi secolari durante il resto del tempo? Chi è il misterioso guardiano del vecchio faro abbandonato? E come può l'isola disabitata celare ancora un tesoro dimenticato? Rick, anche questa volta, troverà le risposte insieme ai suoi amici, imbarcatisi con lui all'avventura sulle tracce del famigerato pirata Darkain.

Lo scricchiolio orribile che emisero fece venire la pelle d'oca persino a Rick, qualche metro dietro di lui.C'è... c'è nessuno? chiese Simon con quel po' di voce che riuscì a ritrovare.
