This collection of island stories carries the reader from daring
adventures beneath the Caribbean Sea to tense conflict on a deserted island near
the Canadian border. Love stories and private eyes, a boy living on a lonely
salt cay and a girl's dream of freedom at sea, hurricanes and heroes -- all
told with humor add the insight that comes from first-hand experience.
