Sinopsis

In "Frank Merriwell's Nobility; Or, The Tragedy of the Ocean Tramp," Burt L. Standish crafts a gripping narrative that balances adventure with moral lessons inherent to the genre of young adult fiction. The novel follows the eponymous character Frank Merriwell, a paragon of virtue and resilience, as he navigates trials on and off the sea. Standish's style is characterized by straightforward prose and compelling dialogue, which enhance the suspense and emotional depth of Merriwell's escapades. Set against the backdrop of early 20th-century America, the book reflects societal values of honor, perseverance, and the consequences of one's actions through riveting plot twists and engaging subplots. Burt L. Standish was the pseudonym of Gilbert Patten, an influential figure in the genre of boys' fiction during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Patten drew upon his own experiences and the cultural zeitgeist of his time to create relatable and aspirational characters for his young readers. His expertise in crafting adventure narratives reflects his deep understanding of adolescent psychology and the role of fiction in shaping moral values. I highly recommend "Frank Merriwell's Nobility" to readers seeking a classic tale that expertly combines excitement with ethical dilemmas. This work not only entertains but also invites reflection on the nature of nobility and character development, making it a significant addition to the canon of children's literature.

On a blustery January breeze, a new girl sweeps into the neighborhood, breathing life - and a bit of magic - into the cottage she christens Elderberry Croft. 
The folks at The Coach House Trailer Park can't help but fall under Willow Goodhope's spell. She charms them all with her whimsical nature and outrageous laugh. But there's something about her, a secret sadness that hovers at the corners of her irrepressible smile. And it has everyone talking. 
Doc catches her burning letters out under the moonlight. Joe glimpses the whispering shadows clinging to the girl's coattails. Eddie and Donny compete to see who can make her smile first, and Patti can't ignore that her husband is sitting up straighter and taking notice of the young beauty. Kathy is doing everyone in the park a favor by keeping a close eye on the wild woman next door. 
Through her binoculars. 
And what she sees doesn't sit well with any of them. 
"I meant to savor Elderberry Croft - I really did - but I couldn't help myself and gobbled it up in one sitting. Brimming with beautifully flawed characters who will make you sigh, smile, laugh, cry, and hurt over their very real struggles, Becky Doughty's Elderberry Croft is a must read." ~ Tamara Leigh, USA Today Bestselling Author

First, he’s working for the secretive Armstrong Organization - a group dedicated to hunting terrorists, drug smugglers, and the nastiest criminals since Blackbeard. 
Second, his partner is DJ Martin, a one-legged Airborne vet, who has the temperament of a croc with a toothache. DJ has never met a nose he couldn’t break, and he’s tested plenty of them.  
When a body washes ashore at an island resort in Culebra, a family desperate for help turns to Jerry and DJ. Sailing the Caribbean looking for answers, their course proves deadlier than either man bargained for. And when Jerry’s past dealings appear on the horizon, the two men have to find common ground to overcome a cunning, powerful enemy with a desire more dangerous than murder.
