Ricky Bradhsaw has never sailed the Spanish Main, searched for buried treasure, or battled pirates on the deck of a Spanish galleon. But all that changes on a snowy Christmas Eve when Ricky falls into the chilly waters of a creek across from his apartment while trying to rescue Barnacle, a mangy mutt with shrimp breath. Now Ricky finds himself on a raft in the middle of the Caribbean Sea, where there is surprising beauty on every island, danger around every corner, and great honor and glory for all who can survive the curse of the Black Avenger.

In this YA pirate tale, award-winning author Eddie Jones blends action, adventure, and humor into a fictional retelling of the pirate exploits of Calico Jack, Anne Bonny, and Mary Read. While searching for rumored treasure in a cave on Coffin Cay, a small island off the southwestern tip of Haiti (Hispaniola), Ricky suffers an absence seizure. During his last trance-like episode, Ricky uncovered a treasure from the Nuestra Señora de Riqueza, a vessel in an armada of ships sailing the Spanish Main.

But Nick Caden's vacation becomes a nightmare when this "living" ghost town takes a deadly turn toward trouble. Soon Nick finds himself trapped in a stable with the infamous outlaw Jesse James. The shooter whirls, aims and...vanishes. Great theatrics, Nick thinks. Only then does he discover the body of a real dead cowboy. Soon Nick is caught in a deadly chase - from an abandoned gold mine, through forbidden buffalo hunting grounds, and across Rattlesnake Gulch. Around every turn he finds another suspect.

What if you were forced to sail with pirates? Captured and tried for piracy. Then, sentenced to hang. Would you trade your body to the crew of the Flying Dutchman to save your soul? Ricky did. Some dead men do tell tales. And there is stolen treasure in this pirate story. Last winter, Ricky Bradshaw was another gangly freshman hoping to fit in - or at least not get picked on - and maybe catch the attention of Becky Nance, a girl in his biology class.

At the conclusion of a seminar on “Trances and Visions: Exploring the Out-of-Body Experience”, the wealthy daughter of a prominent physician approaches Ricky with an offer: "If my father could fix things so your mother would receive the best cancer treatment for free, would you go back in time to clear my ancestor’s good name?" Ricky explains that he can’t simply will himself to have an episode and take a time-travel trip.

Nick Caden became an internet celebrity for almost a whole day when he discovered Billy the Kid's killer in the "living" ghost town of Deadwood. (Not the real Billy the Kid - he's long dead). When the owner of the Cool Ghoul Gazette learned of Nick's super sleuthing skills, he hired Nick to investigate the death of a vampire in Transylvania, North Carolina. (Not a real vampire, right?). Then, only hours before the start of Savannah's Halloween night Zombie Crawl, Nick' investigates the rumors that one of the walking-dead comes alive during the event, bringing his sister.

The Day the World Sneezed tells a story of hope, helping others, and finding the "lighthearted" moments in the midst of tragedy. It is one man's account of how he lived by the Golden Rule.

Last summer, Nick Caden became an internet celebrity for almost a whole day when he discovered Billy the Kid's killer in the "living" ghost town of Deadwood. (Not the real Billy the Kid - he's been dead for years.) When the owner of the Cool Ghoul Gazette learns of Nick's super sleuthing skills, he hires Nick to investigate the death of a vampire. In Transylvania, North Carolina, Nick finds a corpse with fangs, bite marks, and a stake driven through its heart.

In Sleepy Hollow, teen detective Nick investigates the death of a woman killed in a werewolf attack. There is no such creature, is there? Now Nick is just another 15-year-old trying to settle into his family's new life in Savannah, Georgia. Except when his mom's childhood friend Isabel Canon writes to the family saying there is a werewolf running loose in Sleepy Hollow, Nick boards a train headed for New York to help solve a murder mystery. As often happens when Nick begins to examine the clues, things start to go wrong as soon as he arrives.

Someone is coming for Nick - and maybe his sister and all the girls who ever helped him solve a case. When Nick, Wendy, and Kat get trapped in Old West World on New Year's Eve, Nick realizes someone is gunning for him. But who is this masked man, and why does he want to face Nick in a showdown on Main Street? Chased by a psychotic wolf dog, Nick finds trouble at the Graveyard Gulch Gold Mine, tumbles into a crypt at Digger’s Undertaker, and becomes trapped on a train trestle with the Black Beauty's cowcatcher bearing down.

Exposing the drama and fabrication of crises and the staged managing of responses. Calling out news outlets that report the news absence of the truth. Exposing how the news often gives disproportionate weight to positive news and greater weight to negative news and viewpoints. 20 years in the Marine Corps has taught me to listen but "read between the lines."
