If the sea spit you out, thrusting you back into the age of pirates, buried treasure and beauty beyond belief. . . would you stay? Ricky is about to learn that some dead men do tell tales-and of a terrifying sort.

★ Moonbeam Book Award Winner - Selah Award Winner ★

RICKY BRADSHAW has never sailed the Spanish Main, searched for buried treasure, or battled pirates on the deck of a Spanish Galleon. He''s never fallen through the floor of Davy Jones'' locker, skippered a pirate vessel, or saved the life of a governor''s daughter.

But all that changes on a snowy Christmas Eve when Ricky falls into the chilly waters of a creek across from his apartment while trying to rescue BARNACLE, a mangy mutt with shrimp breath.

Now Ricky finds himself on a raft in the middle of the Caribbean Sea where there is surprising beauty on every island, danger around every corner, and great honor and glory for all who can survive the curse of the Black Avenger.

Parents can trust the Caribbean Chronicles Series. There is no sexual dialogue or situations, violence, or strong language, only a wee little bit of humor. :)
