East of Martha's Vineyard, in the rugged tides of Nantucket Sound, lies Puncheonspike Island, home of the ultimate piratical experience. There, you can tickle your gullet with hearty belly timber, come face-to-fangs with the Sea Serpent of Gloucester, and delight in the musical pyrotechnics at Mooncusser Lagoon. For most visitors, the epic theme park is the adventure of a lifetime.
For fourteen-year-old Justin Renner, a rising tennis star at Newburyport High, it's a prison. Deep in hidden caves below the island surface, Justin is being held captive, desperately trying to escape.
Although Justin may eventually discern he's being tested for admittance into the Swag & Bones League Expeditionists--a secret society thought to exist only in myth--he can't know the biggest secret: he's descended from the most cold-blooded murderer the high seas has ever known, and to carry on an unfathomable legacy, he must either kill or be killed--making Puncheonspike Island a not-so-jolly place.
