The Lost Souls of Island X
After beating the pirates to Island X and its treasures, Scarlet and Jem and the rest of the Lost Souls have now settled on the island. While Uncle Finn wanders around in search of rare plants, Jem tries to construct tree houses, and Scarlet deals with her newfound ability to channel the feelings of the island’s animals. But everything is thrown into disarray when the Dread Pirate Captain Wallace Hammerstein-Jones and his crew, including the traitor Lucas Lawrence, come back to the island. Things get even more worrisome when a troop of King’s Men appears — led by someone Scarlet thought she’d never see again!
