Smothered by her backwater hometown and frustrated by its 1980s cult-movie fame (The Gloomies...have you seen it? It's a real classic, y'know.), Wilder is pretty sure she's seen everything Cannon Cove has to offer. She's desperate to get away from home as soon as she can, and move on to bigger, better, and less annoying things...even if that might mean leaving her best friends behind. But when Wilder discovers a centuries-old pirate map, she may find out that REAL adventure was in their tiny town all along...and they need each other to get to the bottom of it! It's a rip-roaring adventure written by award-winning screenwriter Kiwi Smith (10 Things I Hate About You, Legally Blonde) and Kurt Lustgarten, and illustrated by Naomi Franquiz.

Wilder and her friends continue their adventures, exploring the secrets of their sleepy hometown. Wilder, Macy, Dot, Karma and Ed continue their hunt for notorious pirate Black Mary's secret treasure, and uncover their sleepy town's hidden secrets. With tensions running high, and the smell of the sea (and unclaimed treasure) fresh on the breeze, the girls will have to work together to keep clear of the Denbys and Horace Shipp, not to mention Wilder's increasingly suspicious sheriff mom, to get out of this without walking the plank! Collects issues 5-8 of the acclaimed series written by Kirsten 'Kiwi' Smith (Legally Blonde) and Kurt Lustgarten, and illustrated by fan-favorite artist Naomi Franquiz. Expect more crackling banter and a hoard of pirate booty in this series' exciting conclusion!

Final Issue! The girls are mere steps away from discovering the truth about Black Mary, but there's more going on than they realize...
