Lady Kemp is worried. Her granddaughter, Carmeline, is about to marry Victor Fabloose, a French playboy who may be a gold-digger...or a poisoner.

Captain Waverly Underhill is offered $25,000 to make sure the marriage never takes place. To succeed, he devises a clever scheme involving real buried treasure--a solid-gold statue of a pirate as big as a chocolate Easter bunny. Underhill also borrows a chapter and page out of Charles Dickens while adding an ingenious new wrinkle to a thousand-year-old lie detector test.
