    When sailing with Grandpa something magical always happens. You can?t sail without wind. Grandpa?s sailboat is called a sloop and has two sails. It also has a little engine just in case there is no wind. The big sail is called the main sail and the smaller sail is called the jib. When it is very windy the boat can sail with just the jib, so it does not tip to the side too much. It?s really funny; there is a boat language.

    Marty Preston wonders why it is that despite Judd Traver's attempts to redeem himself everyone is still so willing to think the worst of him. Marty's friend David is sure that Judd will be named as the murderer of a man who has been missing. Others are sure that Judd is behind a series of burglaries in the area. But Marty's parents and, with some trepidation, Marty himself persist in their attempts to be good neighbors and to give Judd a second chance. Now that Marty has Shiloh, maybe he can help Judd to take better care of his other dogs. Then again, maybe folks are right -- there's no way a Judd Travers can ever change for the good. Then a terrifying life-or-death situation brings this dilemma into sharp focus. Saving Shiloh is a powerful novel that brings this trilogy to a close.
