Produktbeschreibung
Meet Jamie Strings., a thirteen-year-old boy born and raised in the tiny town of Broken Creek. A farm boy through and through, he enjoys spending his days in the woods, hunting, fishing and teaching himself to be able to live off the land. He lives a pretty sweet life with his parents on their family farm. Meet Billy Scrubbs, also thirteen. Billy has had a rough life, moving from town to town, never staying anywhere long enough to make friends because his dad is a mean, dishonest drunk who makes life hell for his wife and kids. What money they manage to scrape together, he spends to feed his alcohol addiction to the neglect of his hungry, ill-clothed family. The new school year starts back with in-person learning after the prior school year switched to remote learning at the beginning of the pandemic. Along with face masks and sanitizer, the school year brings problems with egotistical bullies and nasty teachers in cahoots to micromanage the students to absolute misery. Billy and Jamie form a formidable alliance where they experience fun, adventures and a few close calls in things such as backwoods survival, self-defense, crime solving, and even blackmail. They find that secrets can be fun to keep, while certain facts can eat away at a person's soul. When the darker side of life in Broken Creek reveals itself, the boys find themselves tasked with using their wits and grit, pushed to the very limits, in their fight not only for justice, but even their very survival!

Autorenporträt
Find James and his books at www.jamesmitchelldouglas.ca!James (Jim) Douglas is a retired school teacher who lives in Enniskillen Township, Petrolia, Ontario. He lives with his wife Karen, who is also a retired teacher, as well as their youngest daughter. The couple also has four older children. Jim has always had a consuming love for the outdoors and to this day, continues to hunt, fish, trap and train hunting dogs.His first connection to writing creatively came in the 1960's when his English teacher told him he had a knack for writing. Although Jim was not a model student, the compliment always stayed with him. When he was eighteen he started to play the guitar and immediately began to write his own songs because it just seemed the natural thing to do. Over the years, other poems and writings were created.In the early 1980's, his first magazine article called "How I Train a Coon Dog" was published and when letters started coming in from all over North America, it had a very positive impact upon his life. The next article he wrote was in the late 1990's and it also was published. The 800 and some dollars he received for this one again was also a positive. Could it be true that his English teacher from long ago had been right?After retirement, he wrote the introduction of a story and read it to his friend, Wayne. The friend listened and then looked at him and said, "Great beginning. I want to hear the rest of the story. Write a book."The challenge was accepted and a few months later a novel called 'Vigliante Justice' was finished and the characters of Davie Meadows, Katrina, Barbara and Griz had been created. This book was followed up with a sequel called 'Sharpshooter: The Sins of Greed'. Jim continues to write, and more novels are on the horizon, soon to be published.As well as writing, Jim continues to train dogs, substitute teach, hunt, fish, trap and participate in the activities that the forests and streams offer up. He loves to teach others, especially his grandchildren, about the natural world he loves.
