About This Book

A group of young friends set off for canoeing and camping on a lake and quickly face danger when they help extinguish a steamboat fire and rescue its passengers. Their outing leads them to an uninhabited island where they discover curious clues, recover a stolen boat, and find evidence of hostile interlopers. Tensions rise as the party confronts rough rogues and a feral presence, fortifies their camp, stages daring escapes, and undertakes a risky rescue that brings the adventure to its conclusion. The narrative mixes outdoor skills, resourcefulness, and steady decision-making amid repeated perils.
