Synopsis Tucker's Island by : Gretchen F. Coyle and Deborah C. Whitcraft
Once located between Great Bay and Little Egg Harbor, along the New Jersey coast, Tucker's Island disappeared into the Atlantic Ocean. Sand dunes and native foliage once covered its eight miles. For generations, the Rider family kept the light illuminated, and the US Life-Saving Service provided aid to ships in distress. Two hotels were constructed by island men with building materials salvaged from local shipwrecks. Visitors arrived by sail or steam, and the popularity of Tucker's Island inspired real estate agents to sell worthless lots to unsuspecting buyers eager for their own piece of the shore. Storms battered the vulnerable island; the lighthouse toppled in 1927, the life-saving station washed away, and in 1932, the island was removed from tax records.

Synopsis Return to Robinson Island by : TJ Hoisington
Inspired by the “original” Swiss Family Robinson book written in 1812 by Johann David Wyss, Return to Robinson Island is a continuation of the adventures of the Robinson family fifteen years after their famous shipwreck. Return to Robinson Island is an entertaining, action-packed adventure story that has a thread of romance weaved throughout. It takes place fifteen years after the Robinson Family’s famous shipwreck on a remote island in the East Indies. The story highlights Ernest Robinson, who is now twenty-seven years old, engaged to be married, and is a 1st Lieutenant in the British Royal Navy. Ernest has distinguished himself as a fearless fighter, respected leader, God-fearing man, and loyal friend. However, his loyalty is tested when his commanding officer, Captain Charlie, is court-martialed on war crimes and Ernest has no choice but to tell the truth even if his testimony sends his former captain to prison. When reports reach England that a vast treasure trove has been found on Robinson Island, Ernest and his family find themselves in mortal danger when Captain Charlie vows to retrieve the treasure for himself and wreak revenge on the entire Robinson family. Will the Robinson Family survive the attack? Will Ernest ever see his fiancée again? One thing is certain: they won’t give up the island – or their lives – without a fight!

Synopsis My World Of Islands by : Leslie Thomas
Leslie Thomas's odyssey is a vivid, personal account of the most fascinating islands at the furthest reaches of the globe: to islands as distant and diverse as Saint-Pierre et Miquelon off Newfoundland and Great Barrier Island off New Zealand, and to places more familiar by name, including Nantucket, Fair Isle, Tahiti, and Capri, this journey voyages to the world's smaller places. Descriptive, evocative and liberally sprinkled with anecdotes, the book weaves together a tapestry of impressions. Beachcombing for local legends, geography, colonial history and maritime lore, Thomas's search for the mystique of these islands gives the reader a unique insight into an extraordinary and beautiful world of islands. 'My World of Islands reads as a paean to a past age... a reminder that the entire world has not yet been reduced to Frejus or Marbella' Times Literary Supplement

Synopsis The Lost Mission of Captain Carranza by : Dave Hart
It's the summer of 2007 and two documentary movies are being made about the life of acclaimed aviator Emilio Carranza. Nicknamed the "Lindbergh of Mexico" Carranza died tragically in 1928 when his plane crashed deep in the heart of the New Jersey Pine Barrens while returning home from his celebrated goodwill flight to the United States. Using the screen name Dante Reed, Danny Windsor has dyed his hair black for the part of the dashing, young Captain Carranza in one of the films. Geoffrey Martin, hoping to gather film experience to make his own documentary about his latest environmental interest, is providing local assistance on the other. Keeping shop at Colson's General Store, Kelly becomes captivated by the mysterious Madame Rita, a new age psychic who lures her into persuading the others to attend a spirited séance with calamitous results. Together the three intrepid teens find themselves awash on a tumultuous wave of movie making magic that plunges them into the depths of international intrigue-both past and present. Struggling against the forces of pride, prejudice and historical perspective the kids must penetrate the dark veil of truth that has kept this tragedy cloaked in mystery.
