It's the summer of 1935, and in the sleepy Florida Keys,
thirteen-year-old Jake Pitney's life is quiet and easy. But all of
this changes once Jake begins helping out the town's eccentric
fisherman, Sharkey, with work.
On a trip to Key West, Jake is dumbfounded when Sharkey buys a
mule named Jewel and her faithful sidekick, a dog named Rudy.
Despite their troublemaking ways, Jake grows fond of the
mischievous duo and their owner. All the while, Jake is trying to
befriend Mara, the new girl in town, whose life has been filled
with sadness.
During the Labor Day holiday, an unpredictable Atlantic hurricane
hits Jake's hometown with devastating speed and power, reducing the
island to shambles. Jake is determined to find his family, along
with Sharkey and Mara. But he may need help from some unlikely
sources.
From the bestselling author of "Star in the Storm" and "Thunder
from the Sea" comes a gripping story of strength and determination
in the face of uncontrollable circumstances. Based on actual
events, Joan Hiatt Harlow's tale explores friendship, loyalty, and
ultimately, hope.
A boy builds a life-changing bond with his dog in this adventure
story from the author of Star in the Storm.It's 1929, and
thirteen-year-old Tom Campbell has always wanted a real family with
a real house and a dog of his very own. Since he was three years
old, the only home he has ever known has been the Mission
orphanage. When he is sent to live and work with fisherman Enoch
and his wife, Tom finally sees his dream within reach. And when he
rescues a Newfoundland dog in the middle of a terrifying squall,
Tom feels as if both he and the dog, which he names Thunder, have
found a place to call home at last. But when Enoch's wife becomes
pregnant and it looks like Thunder's owner might be found, Tom's
wonderful new world is turned upside down. Will the Murrays still
want Tom? And will Tom be forced to give up his beloved Thunder?
