Ten-year-old Charles Dayton Stratton, a young writer, is sent away from his third-story room overlooking the crashing waves of the Atlantic Ocean to a boarding school in France, the Château du Mont. The moment he arrives, locked behind a stone wall topped with barbed wire, Charles makes plans to escape. However, due to a mysterious jangle of keys behind a locked gate, a suspicious all-around man, a black cat, a silver box, a Bedouin prince, a mathematical genius, a $500 check, and The Ghost of the Jangling Keys, escape must be postponed. Mysteries must be solved. Adventure is unavoidable.

Charles guides readers on a journey of creativity, curiosity, and self-expression, demonstrating how young writers can cultivate their imagination while developing their skills.
