Boats slipping in under cover of darkness. Whispered fear. Strangers who vanish before sunrise. Tye and Alex Johnson know Nassau well. But during a holiday stay at their grandmother's waterfront home, they begin to notice things they were never meant to see.
When Jean-Claude, their grandmother's trusted gardener, asks for their help in a matter that seems both urgent and compassionate, the brothers step into a situation far more dangerous than they understand. What begins as a simple effort to help someone in need quickly unravels into a mystery filled with secrets, shifting loyalties, and truths that refuse to stay hidden.
As the stakes rise, Tye and Alex must navigate fear, deception, and the painful realization that good intentions do not always lead to good outcomes. In the middle of danger and uncertainty, the brothers are forced to rely on courage, discernment, and faith as they fight to do what is right.
Book 2 in the Bahama Island Adventures series - set against the vivid backdrop of Bahamian island life, The Case of the Missing Boat Captain is a clean teen mystery and suspense-filled Christian novel about compassion, justice, and learning to see clearly when nothing is as it seems.
"Not a stale page in the book"
"As a parent, I think I enjoyed reading The Case of the Missing Boat Captain as much as my thirteen year-old. We read a chapter each day and it was always hard to keep from 'peeking' into the next chapter to see what was going to happen next... its narrative weaves some very interesting (and probably not commonly known) history about Haiti, its spiritual roots, and the plight of the Haitians to find a better life in the Bahamas. The story has some harrowing moments that leave the reader on the edge of his seat, some of which converge with some quite unexpected encounters with the power of God! ...the fact that it is both historical fiction and a faith-based suspense/adventure makes it not only enjoyable, but a tremendous learning tool for the hungry student." - Colleen Aitken
