Description

Murphy wasn’t out to find a mystery, but one stormy night a mystery found him.

No one would believe Murphy saw a pirate ship in the channel in front of his home in the middle of the night, but Murphy was determined to solve the mystery of the Black Skull. He dragged his reluctant cousin Katrina along for the adventure, and their quest quickly turned dangerous as they clashed with a ruthless villain and his gang of pirates on the streets and waterways of Juneau, Alaska.

During their search for clues, they uncovered a dark family secret intertwined with the mystery of the pirates and their ship. It became a race to solve both mysteries as Murphy and Katrina, with the help of his dog Hogan, headed bravely into the storm, determined to risk it all to untangle the curious web of lies, murder, and buried treasure.

Murphy and the Mystery of the Black Skull is a middle-grade fiction with a little fact thrown in. Real-world places, facts and history are seamlessly sprinkled throughout the exciting story.
