Deb liked the story, laughing a lot & saying 'no way' at all the right spots. She especially liked a new character that has a major role, though the name of said character may change. I still have a few more chapters to go (then re-writes & edits) but I thought I'd blog about it via pictures & drop a few hints along the way...
Jack Rackham is 16. If he hadn't taken that shortcut near Treasury Street, he never would have ended up in jail..... of course, the homeless girl never woulda been rescued either ....
Natuarally there are supernatural elements in this story, just like in Bad Latitude, & they're not limited to the prison surroundings either ....
.... Much of the story takes place here in St Augustine, like here at The Old Jail... a real place in The Ancient Haunted City .....
.... Pop's new boat.... Reckless Endeavor... is an 82 foot schooner with a few high tech surprises... a few million bucks very well spent... treasure hunters always need reliable transportation.... & it's big enough for Bad Latitude to hitch a ride...
Reckless doesn't lack any of the Rackham-preferred luxuries...it's not quite on par with the gated Rackham Estate, but it'll do....
..... and it has all the latest gadgets...
.... you need high tech gizmos to cross through the Bermuda Triangle.....
.... and being the descendants of this guy... Calico Jack Rackham.... there had to be a reunion....
.... 'cause Pop always flies the Rackham flag...
...... just like Old Calico Jack flew in the old days....including last summer in the middle of the night when chasing Jack through the Matanzas Bay...
Jack & Kai are on another mission... they'll have to keep their heads & their bearings.....
.... so they can get here.... & hopefully .... make it home.... in one piece.
