    T.W. Kirchner, Jay Markwart, Short on Time Books

    Audiobook (Short on Time Books, Dec. 10, 2015)
    Tommy Klopt and his family are starting fresh on the straight and narrow. With their new crew member, Cosette, who they saved from a sea witch, the Klopts are building a life in New England. The ever-present ghost pirate, Francois l'Olonnais, has grown quite a reputation in the ghostly realm since meeting the family. He's garnered respect for acquiring a new crew of mortals, the Klopt family, at his beck and call. Jealousy and greed have not escaped those serving their time in limbo, and unlike l'Olonnais, these pirates seek to control the Klopts to satisfy their desire for power and treasure. The crew of the Whispering Sands has a plan to release l'Olonnais' hold on the Klopts and mark the family for themselves.

    T. W. Kirchner, Claton Butcher, Short on Time Books

    Audible Audiobook (Short on Time Books, Dec. 27, 2013)
    For two years, twelve-year-old Tommy Klopt, his dad, Hoody, and his two brothers, Connor and Dillon, sailed the seas as Robin Hood-type pirates. After meeting, and almost getting killed, by a pirate from the 1600s turned evil ghost, Francois l'Olonnais, the family decides to head back to land and start over. Life on land turns out badly for the family, and they set sail once again. It isn't long before l'Olonnais returns and brings a fellow ghost pirate, Captain Jacques Mignard with him. Mignard needs a mortal's help to retrieve his girlfriend, Cosette, and he heard Tommy can get the job done. Besides a time crunch, the biggest obstacle is a spiteful and tricky sea witch, Volange.

    She was the largest, fastest, and latest thing in seagoing destroyers, and though the specifications called for but thirty-six knots' speed, she had made thirty-eight on her trial trip, and later, under careful nursing by her engineers, she had increased this to forty knots an hour-five knots faster than any craft afloat-and, with a clean bottom, this speed could be depended upon at any time it was needed. She carried four twenty-one-inch torpedo tubes and a battery of six twelve-pounder, rapid-fire guns; also, she carried two large searchlights and a wireless equipment of seventy miles reach, the aërials of which stretched from the truck of her short signal mast aft to a short pole at the taffrail. Her crew was not on board, however. Newly scraped and painted in the dry dock, she had been hauled out, stored, and fueled by a navy-yard gang, and now lay at the dock, ready for sea-ready for her draft of men in the morning, and with no one on board for the night but the executive officer, who, with something on his mind, had elected to remain, while the captain and other commissioned officers went ashore for the night.
