Spanish Doubloons
Produced by Al Haines
"Spanish Doubloons" by Camilla Kenyon is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story unfolds around the quirky and tumultuous adventures of Virginia Harding, an orphan who is tasked with looking after her eccentric Aunt Jane. The plot thickens as Aunt Jane decides to embark on a treasure-hunting expedition for Spanish doubloons with the enigmatic Miss Violet Higglesby-Browne, drawing Virginia into a chaotic series of events that take them to the exotic Leeward Island. At the start of the narrative, Virginia is trying to enjoy a peaceful vacation, having sent Aunt Jane away to keep her out of trouble. However, a letter from Aunt Jane ignites a frantic journey to Panama, where she learns of her aunt's reckless plans to hunt for buried treasure. As Virginia arrives at the hotel, she discovers that Aunt Jane has already embarked on the journey and, driven by a desire to rescue her from potential danger, she hops onto a ship bound for the island. The opening chapters establish a humorous and adventurous tone, as well as introduce the colorful cast of characters, setting the stage for Virginia's mission to protect her aunt and sarcastically navigate the weird exploits surrounding the treasure hunt.
