Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Doubloons is a novel written by English author Eden Phillpotts and published in 1906. The story takes place in the small village of Dartmoor, where a group of eccentric characters, including a retired sea captain, a wealthy landowner, and a young artist, become embroiled in a mysterious treasure hunt. The treasure in question is a hoard of Spanish doubloons, believed to have been hidden somewhere in the village by a pirate many years ago. As the search for the doubloons intensifies, the villagers begin to uncover long-buried secrets and rivalries, and tensions rise between the various factions vying for the treasure. Meanwhile, a sinister figure known only as ""the Stranger"" lurks in the shadows, watching and waiting for his chance to claim the doubloons for himself. With its colorful cast of characters, intricate plot, and atmospheric setting, Doubloons is a classic tale of adventure, greed, and betrayal that will keep readers guessing until the very end.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
