Nick lives in a lighthouse on the edge of a British Island next to France during the days before World War II. His father is engaged with a group of “bird watchers” who are monitoring suspicious German submarine and air movements through the channel. Seeking to help his father, Nick discovers a new German secret submarine. At the same time, he meets a vicious pirate, William Blood, from the early 19th century who is after a mysterious chest that Nick had just found on the shore of his island. In the second book, Nick continues his fight against the Germans, including using an old Sopwith Camel that he and his friend, Gunner, have restored. Nick also goes back to 1781 to rescue his sister from Captain Blood and stop Captain Blood’s attempt to change history.
