    Coop DeVille, a teenage pirate captain, spots a beautiful girl on the shore in southern Florida. The girl happens to
    be rebellious teenager Jenny Snow, who is constantly changing her hair color.

    The two quickly find themselves on a search for an ancient treasure that's been lost for hundreds of years. With the
    help of some friends, DeVille and Snow are off to find the treasure, while hitting a few bumps in the road along the
    way.

    Mr. Jennings creates witty characters who create an overall comical and adventurous plot. The unique writing style
    takes readers into the present day where pirates still happen to be in existence. Through his ability to bring his
    characters alive, Jennings leaves readers hoping to spot a wooden pirate ship off on the horizon.

    This book is a fun, quick read for people of all ages.
