Summary
Ann Hood's beloved Treasure Chest series gets a whole new look! The time-traveling Robbins twins meet history's most captivating figures—including the famous Alexander Hamilton.
When twins Felix and Maisie Robbins move with their mother to a historic seventy-room mansion in Rhode Island, they were expecting to deal with the normal problems that come from starting at a new school. But that quickly changes when they discover The Treasure Chest--a magical room that transports them through time.
This time the twins are transported to tropical Saint Croix in 1772, where they meet a young man named Alexander Hamilton, who is about to embark on a journey to New York. Determined not to let Alexander out of their sight, Felix and Masie stow away on his ship, even as it sets sail!
