In the year 1836, the Beagle, an English sailing boat on an expedition in the Pacific Ocean lays anchor to one of the Galapagos Islands. Charles Darwin, the young scientist is also on board, and immediately embarks upon studying the island's flora and fauna. In the meantime the two ship's boys Sniff and Jack survey two dodgy sailors who explore the island with the help of a map: they are obviously on a treasure hunt! Sniff and Jack discover that the two sailors are in fact former pirates and an adventurous chase ensues…
Our series "Research Mysteries" offers readers of 10 and up an exciting look at the world of inventions, technology and science. Each volume revolves around an important figure in the history of science, against whom a crime has been committed. The case is cleared up by young detectives - with the help of the reader, since, as usual in the Mysteries series, there are tricky puzzles to be solved at the end of every chapter. Science is made real for young readers in the process!
