A poor grocer’s son living in a small seaside community picks up odd jobs to earn his pocket money. Despite all his hard work and good deeds, he can’t seem to get ahead.

Description
One perfect storm. Two lost treasures. Three amazing discoveries!
When a raging storm delivers a rare treasure into eleven-year-old Jack Cooper’s fishing net, he must choose between finding its rightful owner or selling it for a tempting offer. Doing the right thing isn’t always easy, and time is running out. He could use the cash for so many things, but a nagging feeling about the treasure’s mysterious origin keeps getting in the way.
Meet the quirky and lovable neighbors in the charming port village of Hansford Landing as Jack navigates challenges and adventures with the help of his friends. The antics of Barney the blue-eyed border collie and Freckles the budgie will keep readers guessing about who’s in charge.
For readers ages 9 to 12 and those young at heart.
