The Ship Between the Worlds

When David Jones wakes aboard a pirate vessel, he assumes he is dreaming, but the nightmare is all too real. He is soon drawn into danger: sent to spy on an enemy ship, left stranded, and then rescued by a crew of notorious buccaneers. Escape seems impossible until he discovers a shimmering golden thread beneath the waves, a prize many are willing to fight for. Could this strange object be the key to returning home, or to finding his missing father? David must decide whom to trust as he pursues the answer.
