In "School of Speech," Uncle Scrooge and the ducks embark on a high-stakes adventure in Scotland, chasing a hidden treasure within the ancient walls of the McDuck castle. When a mysterious, shadow-casting "ghost" steals the prize and traps the family on a perilous balcony, the nephews must rely on quick thinking and a hidden path through an old graveyard to turn the tide. Written and illustrated by Carl Barks, this classic tale blends mystery and suspense with the signature charm of the Duck universe, all rendered in crisp, dynamic artwork. The cover by Bill Wright captures the eerie atmosphere with a striking image of the ghostly silhouette against the castle’s looming silhouette.
