• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Pirates. Explorers. And spooky ghost hunters.

It's 1962. Sam and her best friend, Nick, have the whole island of St. John, in the U. S. Virgin Islands, as their playground. They've got 240 year-old sugar plantation ruins to explore, beaches to swim, and trails to hike.

But when a man disappears like a vapor right in front of them, they must confront a scary new reality. They're being haunted. By whom? And why? He's even creeping into Nick's dreams.

They need help, but the one who might be able to give it is Trumps, a reclusive hunchback who doesn't like people, especially kids. Are Sam and Nick brave enough to face him? And if they do, will he listen to them?

As their carefree summer games turn into eerie hauntings, Sam and Nick learn more about themselves and life than they could ever have imagined.

Autorenporträt

Bish Denham's family has been in the Caribbean for over a hundred years. She was raised in the U. S. Virgin Islands and still has lots of family living there.

She says, "Growing up in the islands was like living inside a history book. Columbus named them, Sir Francis Drake sailed through the area, and Alexander Hamilton was raised on St. Croix. Pirates plied the waters and hundred of years of slavery left its indelible mark. It was within this atmosphere of magic and wonder that I grew up. My hope is pass some of that magic and wonder on to my readers."
