Benjamin, Trap, and Thea are concerned that Geronimo Stilton works too hard as editor-in-chief at the Rodent's Gazette. To get him away from the officer, they decide to investigate the mysterious three-headed brie-scented monster that is roaming around the port of New Mouse City. But things take a turn for the worse, as our heroes find themselves trapped like rats on a ship... commandeered by the dreaded Captain Blackrat. Will it be a pirate's life for Geronimo and his relatives? Or something even worse?

Based on episode 10 of the Geronimo Stilton animated series "Iltesoro di Baffonero" written by Diane Morel.
